This is a profound statement! You used the lines in first verse perfectly for the other verses! We must always stop and smell the roses before life has simply passed us by! Beautiful work! xoxo

My pleasure totally!
Comment from CrystieCookie999
This is a super-thoughtful poem. I think it does a great job fitting the trimeric form. It's a reminder that we all must remember to take stock of what we are doing if we are becoming overly busy or ambitious or world-centered. The poet's voice asks the reader to consider list of must-do's and whether or not "No room on there for mud puddles, pink posey buds or birds" might be stopping one from other, more important values. Nice entry!

Comment from C. Gale Burnett
I looked up the Trimeric form, and you did awesome. I love the theme of your poem ... we so often miss out on life's bountiful beauty because we are so focused on getting through the day, accomplishing and DOING as much as we can.
I love the first stanza and the very last line the most. Great job!!
Very best wishes!

I really like the message in your poem. Some of us day dream our lives away. The trick is to get involved with the realities of life. The Image that you chose is perfect.

Eye catching and soul appealing words to live by. It makes me, the reader think about how time is spent, and questions the both the purpose and direction of where to go. Very deep and appealingly rhythmic piece. Thank you for sharing!

This is an eye-catching posting because of the picture which drew me in. You chose well to use it to represent your message, because we often must jump to catch hold of the chances coming our way, and then make the best of them. I really enjoyed reading this. Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written trimericpoem about the real of real life. We all get many chances in life and when we don't see or grab at the chances that come our way we miss out and may never have another chance.

Comment from Mia Twysted
There are indeed many chances in life that we do not always take or get to take. We sometimes just dismiss them thinking another one will come along. It is then that they start to disappear.
