You pose a solemn question. In the backdrop of all the chaos in the world, we could easily choose to give up. But as you say in your notes, it's these times of struggle that will help us grow more into all that God wants us to develop - into compassion and caring.

Then who would form the words and thoughts we are on this earth in this lifetime to write? There are too many pages left empty when someone gives up. Their souls become confused. I'm glad you pose the question to invite the reader to contemplate their purpose in this lifetime. Well planned.

Hi Alie. I'm happy that you've come to the same conclusion that I have about this--we must never give in, never give up. The image to accompany your 20-word poem is perfect. Good luck in the contest. Marilyn

Hello, Aryr,
I enjoyed your A contest entry poem, 'Personal Thoughts'.
I don't think that giving up is the answer. As long as there is life there is hope. That is my motto. You followed the contest requirements. Good job.

I don't think we can ever give up, although it is tempting at times.I feel like politically right now. I don't feel like the greatest nation in the world anymore. That makes me very sad. I think we have to keep trying. Your thoughts are clear and concise and the picture complements your writing well.Best of luck in the contest!

I like your poem and I'm glad you didn't mean it about giving up. It's a great contest entry, with the proper word count required. A unique twist on how you view the world. Best of luck in the contest.

I'm glad you added your author's comment... No giving up on this Coronavirus or any other virus that tries to obliterate the human race...
In fact if we don't all smarten up and treat our planet right we won't have to worry about a VIRUS...seems we are our own worst enemy. I counted out your twenty words... (I'm a tad OCD)----and you've met the criteria, so good luck in the contest!---Karenina

Comment from Auryn Eisley
A very well written and thought provoking poem. So many of us have these thought in light of tragedies on a personal or global scale. It can make us feel powerless until we realise we must keep going. Thank you for sharing your personal thoughts and good luck with the contest.
