I like your poem's message. It is of great importance that we revisit our past sometimes to evaluate understanding and how we could better ourselves. Good rhyme presentation as well. Thanks for sharing

I've found in my life that I remember too late. I remember saying that before after I've shot off my mouth. What a wonderfully written poem.
Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

Hey Mike, I will confess, since you have led a the way. A GRAMPS and a Papa haven't got it all together. We still have a way to go before we achieve a gold crown.

Comment from Kerry L Batchelder
I really like this thought provoking poem about considering past decisions and the joy or consequences they brought, as we create new memories. Perhaps we can learn from our mistakes. Very well written, easy to read, mind capturing. Excellent work, illustration was perfect for memories.

Comment from Sally Law
Hello there, Dr. Nad. A fine poem you have here with an important word of caution within. We should have pain memory--like not to touch fire and be burned. These things teach us as you say.
Sending you a wonderful day,
Sal :))

Comment from Jesse James Doty
I only became intentional in my personal growth when I turned 59 years of age. It was then that I started working on myself, and my memories before that were all filed: under emotion. Since then, they are filed: under instruction. Your author's notes were quite clear, and I wanted to answer that.
As far as the poem is concerned, I love it all and especially the last line, which spoke to me, "before leaping: Investigate!"
I always use this advice to the best of my knowledge. The artwork fits the piece to a tee! Thank you for sharing your wise advice and letting me share my life with you.
Have a great evening,
Jesse

I enjoyed this good doctor. It is certainly a prescription for the soul, with a good dose of wisdom for good measure.
I believe this should do rather well in the contest. Good luck.

Comment from June Sargent
These words of wisdom should be heeded - especially in the world we live in today. Learning from the past, our failures as well as our successes, can prevent mistakes and regrets. We need to act wisely - and not just react rashly. You've provided much food for thought.
