Very good construction on this poem. It also teaches a moral lesson. It even carries a rhythm. I really enjoyed it so much that I will give you 5 stars but I will promote it for you.

May Our Heavenly Family Bless You and Yours.

Your Friend, Danny

    Thank you so much, Christine, for the lovely words about The Magic Bank Account! When I had read the original story, I, too, did not realize the number of seconds we have each day (and did multiply it out myself). I am so happy that you enjoyed and want to thank you once again! Have a wonderful day!

Well done. I felt like I was reading a story and wanted to keep going to
see where it was taking me. It tells a very good lesson in poetic form.
It has a good flow. During the reading I didn't notice the rhymes. On
a second look. I see they are there.

Well wortjy of a six, of which I have none.
Your Meter and rhyme are exceptional! I could toe tap every line! The clever tale hooked me by the end of second verse...and on you went to show that wealth is NOT found in a purse! I've taken your words well to heart...there have been some painful days... But eighty six thousand four hundred seconds! I must spend in hopeful ways!

    Thank you so very much for the wonderful review and am so happy to know that my approach to the tale caught your attention from the beginning. The original story of The Magic Bank Account was filled with such meaning that I wanted to try to turn it into poetic form. Thank you again for your kind words and have a beautiful weekend!

Wow this is such a wonderful write and really does deserve six stars, but I am out of them just now. What a wonderful way of describing the gift of life and how we often take it for granted and fail to spend our hours wisely. Life is short and should live each to to the full and appreciate every second, an uplifting, skilfully written poem that brought much joy to me today, love Dolly x

    Hi, Dolly! Thank you so very much for the lovely review of The Magic Bank Account and your thoughtful and kind words about its meaning. The original story (from note found in the Coach's wallet) resonated with me to try to capture it in poetic form. Thank you once again and sending my best to you for a beautiful weekend!

Spend all your seconds wisely for you can't bring back time lost"

A fine poetic adaption to the story. This poem offers up some of the best advice a youngster could be given. Very interesting that "Bear" Bryant carried it with him.

    Thank you, Paul, for the wonderful review! I'm so happy that you enjoyed. It was an interesting story about the Coach - I read the story somewhere over a year ago and just kept thinking in my mind that it might be recreated into poetry form. Thank you again and have a wonderful weekend!

What an intriguing story! Bear Bryant is a hero to me and this is a fine tribute to a legend. There is great wisdom here - on money and life. Excellent work here. Best of luck in the contest.
