Comment from Gloria ....
You know it, Craig. There is so much more to life than winning a contest, especially if it lasts over decades.
Perfect syllable count and lots of great imagery. Best wishes to you in the contest, even though that's not what life is about. Ha.
No really I'm serious.
Great job.

LOL the irony didn't occur to me until after I'd written the thing, Gloria. Thanks for the kind review :) Craig
Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Craig,
I enjoyed reading your nonet contest entry. Good job on its style--correct syllable counts per line. You did a great job expressing your thoughts. So many do or have made life a contest. They can't enjoy life for trying to outdo others. I like your rhymes very much. They really add to the overall enjoyment of your poem. Your art choice is perfect, too.
Best wishes in the contest. Jan

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks about success in living, as the example tells us about the cycle of living, for completing the target, one has to follow and go thru the cycles in series; I liked and enjoyed the read.

An excellent nonet. My favorite line is:
"Value prize, but not the race."
This is a positive poem of what is of true value.
