Truth speaks eloquently. In life, few good things happen by chance. Most desirable things come about as a result of preparation. As a matter of fact, if something truly wonderful happens to you and you are not prepared to deal with it, guess what? You may very well lose it all as a result of your not being prepared to deal with good fortune. Do I need to say more about the importance of preparation?

A very well-written poem about competition that is always good to determine one's capability to perform against others and to show their spcial skills.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very good choice of artwork.
-Your notes are appreciated.
-You have written a good poem
about the positive aspects
of competition.
-I agree that there are "many
facets" to competing.
-I also think it applies to
daily life, the desire to be
the best we can and
feel the sense of accomplishment
for doing so-on and off the field!
-Good luck in the contest.

This explains any athlete's frame of mind. The betting the component at any cost can change a human being, though. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing

Comment from CrystieCookie999
This free verse poem reflecting on what competition is and signifies includes some 'd' consonance in 'good,' 'stand,' 'ground,' I see some long 'e' assonance in end words 'peak,' 'compete,' 'field' and 'mind.' I think it is a good entry for the contest. I would add an apostrophe to make it: coaches' glare and later on: the competitors' stare
and thanks for posting!

"Competition begins in preparing", is an extremely well-written and deftly descriptive piece. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. To me, this is a six, but sadly I've run out of them. I look forward to seeing your next post.

Great job of expressing the benefits of competition. I really like it that you don't focus on the winning but on the cooperative efforts of the entire time and the trust in each other. Best wishes in the contest!
