29. Life
by Debra White

Hello Debra

Lovely Rhymed Couplets.

You are right, life is a gift, that's why it's called PRESENT. :)

The rhymes do not seem forced. Your poem flows well. It draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Debra, you have accomplished a lovely writing of couplets, enhanced by the assonance of past tense verbs, cherished, protected, and entrusted! Along with end rhyme "prayer", "care", "day" and "away" really connects the couplets with ease of delivery. The smooth flow of the message and your superb choice of words, "love", "prayer", "life" and "treasure" elevate the reading and drive to the finish! Great job!

I love seeing your sweet face and then reading your words of wisdom. If I had a plaque of this I would mount it over my bed. Very sweet and well put. You are the queen of these types of writing!

Your two rhyming couplets are succinct and loaded with wisdom! Life is so brief and we do need to treasure each moment. That picture illustrates your poem perfectly!

Your thoughts, Debra, are well expressed. I agree with everything you wrote. You formatted your poem in a great way. Your image depicts a great and true timeline that could end without notice, so Carpe Diem--seize the Day! This is a great reminder to all of how precious life is and live for each day.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

This poem, Life, presented as two rhyming couplets, reminds us that days will go by one way or another. Pleasantly and fondly remembered is better than anything else.
