Hi Jaybird,
This is one of my favorites of your poems.
Smooth flow, rhyme and divine message.
I like you comparing life to a puzzle. Your title about having a grateful heart is key.
I probably would award this a 6 except you do have a spelling error in the following line:
"So soon earthly time is over,
when all your *laughts and tears are done"
(Laughs)
Thank you for continuing to share your gifts/s.

I find your outlook on life and death a bit unique. Not bitter or jaded, just matter of fact. That is very refreshing. so many have, I think and unreal expectation of harps, wings, golden slippers and so on. I am not so sure.

That's the way to face the aging process. Just follow the way every day knowing you gave your best and when it comes to the end you will soar far and wide.

Your message of peace comes through clearly in your words. Love your last verse about being forever free and sailing on. Your use of words gives a light feel and flow to your poem.

This made me tear up! So beautiful and well written, I love the melancholy yet spirited tone of this! Personally, i'm in a very confused place in my life as of now, and it's artwork of this nature that keeps me grounded, keeps my eye on the prize. Thank you so much for your contribution to the artistic world, you are exceptional! Also, you just earned yourself a fan! Keep it up!! <333

Lovely write - sweet and harmonious...when we are laid to rest there will be a better life - free of hate and war and all the social ills -- as well as our pain and ill health...I am waiting with a hopeful heart. Nice work as always

"So soon earthly time is over,
when all your laughs and tears are done.
You will rest in peace by knowing,
that you gave all yourself and won."
What a positive way to face each day, putting our all into everything we do and enjoying life to its fullest.
