The Best Of You
This is how to live a happy life4 total reviews
Comment from Sally Carter
A neat little poem, Enoch,which contains a very true message.
"Be the best of you" is an excellent phrase - simple but original. If we all achieved the best of what we could possibly be, how much richer life would become.
My only small suggestion would be to change the colour of the words or the background, since the pink on pale grey is rather hard to read.
Best wishes to you.
Sally

You have certainly inspired me. "be the best of you" is very well written in the 5 7 5 genre. You make it sound so easy when to make sense in 3 short lines is very very difficult. You have a rare gift and i can see you making a name for your self in your chosen field. As youwill always try to better yourself till you reach the best. gooloom

i loved the simple way in which so few words said so much , and the fact that you did not use a picture as this made me read the actual words, and intentional or not, it added to the uniqueness of the poem, to me, as it was not trying to be anything else but itself. angela59
