A well worded poem.
Very well done. Concise and makes a strong point.
The message is clear with this one and I completely agree with you.

Dragonpoet, I enjoyed reading this poem about making the most of life. It acts as a reminder to live life to the full. If I were to add any suggestion it would be in this line - "Time is taken". It lends itself to the idea that one is taking one's time about things. I would perhaps word it - "Time is spent". Food for thought. Thank you for sharing. ~DD

This is a beautiful piece. I especially liked" Something ends
A day
A life"
For me, the ending took something away from the rest of the piece. (the part after, So...)

Thanks a good exhortation. Life is so brief and the realization of its brevity causes people to make bucket lists of things to accomplish or experience before the "end." Well done.

A clever and interesting way you have written the thought process that goes into making a bucket list.
Love the way you have formatted this, which falls beautifully into the realms of a list.

This speaks about making bucket list of actions to be taken, life goes on, you are instructed to do it all and not to miss anything as per the plan and in view of the list; I liked.

Drag,
This poem is so simple and to the point with a fervent yet quiet plea for people to scratch off everything on their Bucket List. Powerful message. Well done. :0 GracieAnn

Terse and complete. A simple life lesson to savor every moment.
So many people put off their bucket list until it is too late. Should appeal to the
young. Already too late for us old guys.

    Thanks for the review. What can I do to make in a 5 in your eyes.
    It is never to late as long as you are living. I just started fulling my bucket list
    by going on a bi-plane and glider ride in the last two months and I am
    57 years old. President Bush skydived on his 90th birthday.

Are our bucket lists thwarted by our short life? Mine seems to be endless and I doubt I shall have enough years to fulfill them all, but it's nice to dream, wise resonating and meaningful words here, love Dolly x

    Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the review. Maybe we should rate the importance of each
    item on our bucket list and maybe weed out the ones that really out of our ability to fulfill.
