Nice one line poem laying out the inexorable flow of time in a unique twist of wording. I liked the note on the song by Bobby McFerrin. A rather philosophical piece.

I must be getting old. I had to read your poem three times before I could wrap my brain around it. I think tomorrow becomes yesterday in two days, so today will be long gone.

Your one liner is well presented, Tom. I enjoyed reading
it. We all need to live in the moment as time waits on no
one. The reference to the song was great. I remember that
one. I liked the image.
Best wishes in the contest, Jan

Tom: awesome picture. Few weighty words which kept me thinking and thinking, etc. Simple yet heavy weight of reality. Your work is unique and worthy of contemplation. Linda

    Now if I can only have it read by enough browsers... might it have a chance to win? Thank you.

I liked this haiku for its succinct, yet excellent wording. I've tried several times to write a six-line poem, but everything came out sounding "trite." You captured the essence of the objective well. Good luck in the contest.

    You are welcome. It was my old FS name and consisted of a group of initials. I kept it for reference. I just go by Pam, my real name.

I like your one-line poem, and I like your note. The visual goes well with the line of poetry. I like that the key words are in italics. However, I do feel the font needs to be a larger size. The visual overpowers the line. If you made the background black and the font white it would coordinate well with the black and white image at the bottom of the photo, and it would make the text more focal.

    Let me see if I can make the suggested changes. Thanks.

    You are welcome.

    I found how to make the background black but ???? how does one change the letter coloring?
reply by Sandra Nelms-Ludwig on 15-Jun-2022
    Highlight your poem and in Advanced editor find an underlined capital A at the top of the bar and click on it to change the color of the font.
reply by the author on 15-Jun-2022
    Nope. Black border remains but the white selected on A underlined is a dingy gray and hard to see, Returning to the original setting. Thanks for trying. I can see where it would help.
reply by Sandra Nelms-Ludwig on 15-Jun-2022
    If you select more colors, you can get a solid white.

    I did, and must have done that wrong too.
reply by the author on 15-Jun-2022
    I even tried bright orange and the lettering on black remained dull gray.

    I am not that computer savvy and could only help more if I lived nearby. I guess it is meant to stay the same. Sorry, I wasn't helpful.
reply by the author on 15-Jun-2022
    You tried. I tried. At least I increased the size of the font.
