Maybe you needed two roses in your artwork, you know. . .one for light up and then the fading one would be following your bliss and definitely fading out. :) Nice short poem that talks about how life works.

Comment from Yvon
Not much you can do with a two four two. Maybe you smoke cigars and you really enjoy them like some men they express success in life. Or Start to finish. Very odd photo for this poem.

Comment from victor 66
I'm impressed that you have put words together in this two - four - two format and they flow well together. There is truth to "light up, follow your bliss, fade out" because that's the way life works. We are all going to fade out, we might as well enjoy our time here no matter how short or long that time is. Best wishes.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written 2-4-2 poem. Our lives are much like a flower we only have a short time to live and make our lives blissful before we start to fade away and disappear from the face of the earth.

Comment from Mark D. R.
such a creative way to express the sadness of a wilting flower or relationship
to do so in just eight syllables - terrific
hopefully this contest entry will not fade out with our FS reviewers!

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very nice image, John.
-The syllable count is good.
-The imagery of the light
is effective, along with "Bliss."
-That is a good way to
describe appreciating
the here and now before
it fades out.
-Good luck in the contest.

You can't get much more succinct than this! It's a good summary for a life well lived. Lucky indeed is the person who can 'follow their bliss', if it is possible it will surely light up their lives.
