Your six word poem captures the essence of life perfectly. It is all about the small moments which add up to our lives. Excellent use of words to create a meaningful poem.

So cute and so true! Your selected photograph is precious and enhances your overall presentation value.

"Potpourri" may have been a substitute for your "collections" if I had written this poem and wanted to bring in one of the senses to the 'feel' of this charming poem LOL

A single, acute perception about human life is presented in this six-word poem. It is indeed the small moments that can reliably countermand the larger and more dire events of human existence, and this author aligns with wise commentators throughout history who value moments spent in wonder at the small and wonderful so abundant in the world around us.

This says a lot in six words. That is the way I see life as well. I remember a song the Gathers used to sing the really liked. I think it was We have this Moment. Simple moment of pure joy like a cup of coffee with someone you care about or like you picture, a flower picked for you by a child. Good luck in the contest.

Hello!

I am terrible at writing such small poems. I use lots of words when I write, and cutting them down to six would drive me bonkers.

I do think you did an amazing job with your six words. Your definition of life is splendid, for it truly is what you say. The picture adds much to the point. We collect up all these small moments and weave them together into memories, and this is our life, in hindsight. Not to mention the small moments we experience right now and the ones yet to come.

Good luck in the contest!
Patrick

For sure, poet. It is the little things that says it all. Nothing like a child and how precious the moments. Wishing you the best in the contest. Thanks for sharing your talent.

You did a terrific job with your six words. These things are hard to put together. That's a great way to describe life--a collection of small moments. Those are the times we remember and like to think about over and over. Great artwork to accompany. Best of luck in the contest. judi
