Outstanding work of art! Your clever words are so filled with life! Constance Yost
The cycles of life eloquently expressed with fine rhyme and meter.
This rings with the purity of a vision, seen over the full course of a lifetime. Excellent.
Each one wins, each one fails Weighs the cost, tips the scales .... Each one came, each one left Hearts to bind, hearts bereft Each one laughs, each one cries Each one lives, each one dies It happens to us all. Sometimes it's good to know that others can relate our varied experiences. Beautifully expressed. 10
I really love your couplets and the way they rhyme. Always easy flowing, never forced.
The variables of life are well explained in the simplest manner! ! Nice to read!
Excellent poem! I love the parallels, so elegantly placed and timed, still holding profound interpretation of life. Thank you Valerie!
I love the simplicity of this poem, descriptively accurate and yet everything is accounted for...
Like it, if we live, we die, it's what each one of us does in that time that counts. A great poem.
Very well said condensed life poem. Short, simple, poignant, on point.
A fatalistic, truthful dose of realism, done with a swift and clever swipe of your pen-concise
