Good use of mono-rhyming in each tercet.
I really like your use of questions that directly address and engage the reader.
You deliver a most thoughtful message in this inspiring poem :-) Brooke

I really like the way you have raised questions about our well being. The way you have displayed these questions captures the readers undivided attention and has them answering to these words. You've come across intense, yet emotional, I like that combo, always seems to get the point across. Nicely written I have nothing to critique:)

Dear Sandra,
The metre's fine, the rhyme's divine
And, as you go on line by line
The whole poem flows like sweet white wine

Regards
Reg

    Thank you Miss Cookie, we all have problems at the moment, whether it is money worries, jobs, bills, so many things today can bring us down and a little bit tetchy and upset. It can't last, can it? Thanks again for this lovely review! xsx

I wish I had a six star! You won't believe I had a brawl with one of my office calleague and I escalated it to the higher level.Probably , a timely read could have saved the situation. Nice lines-
If you sometimes feel your temper fly,
if you sometimes feel you want to cry,
that's human nature, so don't ask, 'Why?'

Sandra, I love this. The rhyming tercets are dead on. Each with their own unique rhyme scheme.

You raise a lot of questions that we sometimes fail to see or plainly do not want to see.

Your last tercet is absolutely perfect and well stated.

I did not give you the six but for any other reason than it was that good.

Your choice of artwork is perfect. Excellent, exceptional and my favorite,,,,,,Jim

Excellent read. "Why" is always so overused as in "Why me?" I usually say "why not" which usually puts them into a boiling point but I'm tired of the self proclaimed martyrs.

Sandra, very well written. I especially like the part
about the future being in our hands and we can bury
our heads in the sand or we can learn. Hopefully from
our experiences we do learn and grow. Thanks for sharing
these thoughts.

Sandra, that would be today. No real reason, other than financial concerns. Somedays, I suppose, as you wrote, the best of us flounder. Is it hormonal? Full moon? Wrong side of the bed? Take your pick. I appreciate reading this today. Somehow, knowing we're not alone in these happenings, helps.

One spag: perhaps to (too) fast
