Great philosophy for life Melodie. We should all heed your advise.
Life is full of mistakes but we shouldn't let them define us and if we learn from them....well that changes our failures in to successes.
Well done.
Blessings

Hello Melodie.
You've written an excellent poem for the rhyming contest
with a great message that many will relate to.
Yes, the past is gone, the future unknown, but the present
is where we can make a difference.
Your poem reads well like free verse,
but is nicely rhymed for the contest.
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes.
Robert

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
You are right. When one is younger, it seems nothing stands in the way of anything. It's only after age shows how much time really has passed. You did a great job expressing your thought and feelings about time. We should all try to live for each day and help others. Each of us has only a certain amount of time.
Respectfully, Jan

I enjoyed reading this and I think it offers a great message. It sounds like you are living a positive life with many others benefitting from the kindness that is so obviously present in your heart.

Comment from J. Dennis
I read feeling from the heart in this poem.
It expresses what you stated about using time and being positive. Many people are floundering in problems. (Which is understandable.)
The last part about helping others is a marvelous suggestion.
I hope that you have a great week.

Comment from Frances Jean
A great thought provoking poem with vivid imagery. I always say take time to smell the roses. Many people don't appreciate the little things in life any more. They've all become much too materialistic. With our grandies the paint box I treasured as my favourite Christmas gift is not good enough for them. They want a computer, a BMX bike, a canoe...the list goes on. Yes, as we age we appreciate each and every day with friends and loved ones. Enjoy my friend. All the best Franky

Hi Melodie,
reflection and our connection to our lives shape the people and person we become... good, bad and the ugly. All experiences bring us to the point of growth and creativity that enriches our lives.
For that reason, I enjoyed reading your take and your journey in this 'Rhyming' poem contest.
All the very best in this contest.
With our thoughts we create...
Kind regards,
James.
