Very well-executed despite so few words! You are extremely correct - how we act, speak, and write make up who we are as individuals and that is what makes us unique in this giant universe. We have to make our mark on this Earth with the time that we are given because it is so short.

You have to be a poet such as yourself to create such a weighty meaning in just fifteen words. Yet, the acrostic word RISE seems to carry a different meaning. Very interesting poetry form.

This is well written. I notice that your title, your line above the title, and your line below the title all pretty much say what the poem says. It's as if you want to emphasize the meaningful message again and again. I love the message, don't get me wrong, I just feel, like it is hammered home, and might be more gently said, and still make a lasting impression. Thank you for letting me put in my two cents worth of comments.
Excellent piece and most definitely worth reading.
Have a lovely day,
Jesse

Dear Alcreator, your poem said it all...we are the words we speak and the things we write. Those two tend to define us. Well penned! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Lol!

Your poem of fifteen words has generated a wealth of author notes. We are what we write or perhaps we write what we are. In any event, we are judged by our words, whether they be oral or written. This is an interesting position to take. It places a great responsibility upon us to choose our words carefully.

Another interesting one, very short, but yes, the essence of ourselves and who we are in the depths of our souls is revealed by our thoughts, words, expressions, in all formats.

Nicely done and a good reminder that we need to (I need to) think before I speak - so often I just blurt out words - and should wait until my brain's in gear. Good poem

Excellent! This is so very true. I am not sure how you fit all that into 15 words, but you managed it ever so successfully. We are what we say, do, write. The artwork is perfect and this would make a GREAT poster! It is good to see you doing different things in your writing. I just happened on three very different pieces today and GREAT JOB. This one really impressed me. Good Luck!

This is very good. The Bible says that as a man thinks in his head, so he is. That's along the same lines as your excellent poem. We should always be careful what we think about.

And 23 syllables. Quite the rigid writing prompt for this poem. Good job! This poem pretty much sums up life for many. Terrific artwork. No edits or adjustments necessary.
