Such a lovely sonnet and delightful artwork. I really enjoyed reading it. Yes life is precious and we must live each day as if it's our last. I wish you lots of luck in the competition. Cheers. Jen.

Comment from nancy_e_davis
I am grateful for every day and you make me want to enjoy each one more. I seldom even go outside because of my oxygen hose. I am afraid it will be damaged in the door. LOL I want to enjoy this summer more. I will be 85 in June and only God knows if I will see another summer. Good job on your poem, thanks for reminding me. Hugs Nancy:)

Hi Nancy,
What wonderful comments. I am happy to hear of your gratitude for each day and wanting to enjoy it more. I hope you can. 85 is a great accomplishment and I hope you can celebrate the achievement.
Take care and enjoy life as much as you can.

A very well-written Nonet about the beautiful things in life that gives our lives meaning and that we can be grateful tht we have family and friends that touch our hearts.

I like this poem about living in the moment, focusing on simple things to be thankful for and staying as positive as possible each day. That is a full-time job to stay focused. Bill

Comment from Benny Beeharry
HI friend , I love the great philosophy of optimism behind this rite. In fact the whole write rest on it.
This is the way we all f us need to look at life.
I do grumble sometime but this failing to find answers, but what is there is intended to remain for ever and cannot be changed. In fact they are things which when the time is ripe will become handy. But life is life and is meant to be what it was intended to be. So as you say live it with blessings for others in your heart.
God bless you. Take care
Benny

Hi Benny,
Thank you for the wonderful six-star rating and your insights on the theme. I think we all grumble occasionally, but that is human nature, isn't it? Have a wonderful day and stay safe.

"What Life Means", is short,succinct and very much to the point. With a minimum of words, this talented poet has told it as she sees. I look forward to reading your next post.

Comment from Pearl Edwards
A very important message in this Nonet about not giving in to fear, especially in these Corona virus times, but instead to enjoy each day, each sunrise, and each sunset. lovely message,
cheers.

Comment from Margaret Bednar
A Nonet with a heartbeat! Live! It really is the little things in life that enrich it, are before us everday. I can't find fault other than if you are looking for an inverted triangle maybe putting a few spaces between (be grateful) and (each day" and then space until "live" is centered at bottom. But who am I to talk, my Nonets usually end up aligned at the left margin because they look nothing like this.

Hi Margaret Bednar,
I love that first sentence. I appreciate the suggestions to get the inverted triangle. Thanks for stopping by to read and review.

Comment from lyenochka
So happy that you wrote a nonet! Loved your message to live fully despite the uncertainty of life and especially of these times. Best wishes in the contest!
Suggestion:
"drink in the moonbeams glow" (moonbeams') feels like a possessive here.

Hi Helen,
Thank you for the encouraging comments and your insights. I appreciate the hint on the possessive. I somehow overlooked that.
