Comment from Joan E.
I am gratified that my typical sign-offs of "hugs" and "smiles" are in your illustration, and I appreciate your reminder to give thanks first thing each day. I admire your rhymed quatrains and compelling final line. Cheers and best wishes in the contest- Joan

Comment from BeasPeas
This is an excellent uplifting poem in rhyming and content. I particularly like the last stanza which encourages the reader to find joy in the simple things. Sometimes we overlook those small things right under our nose. Marilyn

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written uplifting poem. When we enjoy what we do it becines a pleasure to get up in the morning and do what we need to do and then do what we love to do.

Comment from rspoet
This is a fine entry for the contest
nicely rhymed in the aabb pattern
with the form of a sonnet though syllables vary
But the message is strong and clear
Helping others and doing one's part is the key
Nicely done
Good luck in the contest

I loved this positive poem, it might sound corny but spending less time thinking about ourselves and more time trying to help others is great, its own reward. Good rhyming scheme, the tone is upbeat, a pleasure to read. MaggieF
