Heavy emphasis on express whatever before departure... although we are truly what we think... the brain is a funny thing and is highly suggestible to our inner babble... yours, diana

Very interesting of what you did with this poem. It's right of who some people of who do you think you are. This perhaps will knock some sense into them. If not then tough luck for them. Excellent poem! Good luck in the contest!

By their fruits ye shall know them, says The Book. The kingdoms topple, and only stray words carved on rocks in the sand remain of all their glory. Excellent poem.

As a man thinks, so is he. Well put here. You are a fine poet and a deep thinker. I am glad to see you sharing the important things before departure. Me, too.
All my best,
Sally

This reminded me of the saying "You are what you love". And your words are very true - you are what you speak or write. A 15 word poetry entry doesn't leave much room for expression but you have managed to fully express yourself. Best of luck in the contest. Blessings to you, Linda

You've expressed a lot of truth in this powerful and well written message you've shared here. Words whether spoken or written are very powerful. They can and will leave a lasting affect, positive or negative. The word of God declares that "death and life is in the power of the tongue.... I enjoyed this well written offering Alcreator! Well done!

I agree with what you wrote. We are what we think, speak and do no matter what one may say about their intentions. I think the picture overwhelms the poem some and confused/distracted me a little the first read through. Rickie

Hello to you
I think this is a wonderful achievement just in sticking to the brief: I have no experience of a writing prompt that limits the characters the writer must use - the words maybe, or the syllables, but the actual characters: that is unusual.
To then create something comprehensive - well, all I can say is: well done. All that you touch and all that you see...all that your life will ever be.
I doubt very much whether there will be many entries, given the narrow constraints of the brief, but it will be interesting to see what turns up. I wish you well with this endeavour.
Cheers

This acrostic fifteen-word poem, What You Express That's Your Base, follows the vertical theme RISE, and has the seventy-one character and selected word requirements. The message of walking and talking like you are followers of God is set forth.

HELLO ALCREATOR: I agree with your posting here. It is true. "As a person thinks...so is he." As a person thinks, determines how he behaves...how he behaves expresses what and who he is. God bless you and yours. Cordially: rhonnie69.
