What You Express That's Your Base
A 4 Line Poem; You're sum of words, scribe and or expression133 total reviews
Comment from Janice Canerdy
This acrostic poem has a thought-provoking theme. People WILL, of
course, remember us for our words and deeds. If we have intelligence
that seldom shows itself, if we go about doing and saying dumb things,
people will--and righty so--remember us as dummies!

Hello Alcreator,
You've written an excellent poem with a solid message for the contest
that appears to meet all the requirements.
"The truth will set you free" seems to be the essence of the theme,
so speak carefully.
Nicely done
Robert

Oh, I hope that's not entirely true. I've been known to pen some pure nonsense. I hope it doesn't say I'm totally nuts. Good luck in the contest.

I like the structure of your poem and the question the picture ask.
I respect your humble biblical opinion. This may be the answer for many but not for me. You've challenge my mindful thoughts and there is no added work needed for this writing prompt entry.

I have been in the company of a few who grope for words they are not used to because they are not happy about transparency. Those types are easy to spot. The rest, yes, what they say reveals their inner being, if they say too much. Then there are the quiet ones, who rarely speak and they are our mysterious ones. Look at all the explanation just from reading 15 words. Well done, I enjoyed your intentions.

Hello Dr. Al,
I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiments expressed in your poetic offering.
I must offer, however, that the phrasing is a bit awkward to me in the last line. I realize you are saying we are all the sum of what we speak, scribe, or express before we leave this world. The last line just doesn't flow very well for me...
thank you for sharing!

What I take from your 15-word poem is that it pays to remember that here on earth while we live our being is revealed by how we express ourselves in all our forms of communication.... but of course, you have expressed it more clearly and simply that me!!

Simple and to the point. For many of us the only thing that will be remembered is what we write and the things we say to those that live on, or something like that. Nicely done.

No truer words have ever been spoken! If only people realized how much what comes out of us determines what happens to us and whether we live a loving, joyful life or one full of pain and sorrow! We are what we think!
