If we believe in the man above, there should not be any jealousy in life. But somehow, we are guilty and forget to ask God for help in several situation. He has integrity and is gracious.

That was interesting, an enjoyable read and quite creative.

The rhythm is tight and it delivers the warnings in a military-like cadence, which enhances it.

Nice work

Best of luck

I am always a bit careful of the zealous. Something up their sleeves is the thought I have. As I was reading your work it came to mind that you could easily turn this into a fun alliteration poem. Good luck in the prompt.

    I too am leery of zealots. I prefer people who are quietly persuasive with their ideas and who are open to or respectful of another way of thinking.

This is a marvelous entry for the "Jealousy" prompt, mystery poet. A cautionary poem with great advice within. Sending you my best today as always, and my very best wishes for the upcoming contest.

A clear message comes through in your poetry. Many people put up a facade, sometimes, for their own emotional protection. Choose your friends wisely.

A well composed and executed poem. I enjoyed reading it. Best of luck.

Feeling envious of others is indeed a destructive trait and a shameful human emotion that serves only to hurt ourselves and others. Your well chosen words here are both descriptive and unnerving as the reality dawns and the jealousy is exposed, a skilful write, love Dolly x

You have done a superlative job with the writing prompt. I love the artwork you attached to the writing; it is perfect. You certainly captured the meaning of the word jealously. Best of luck in the contest.
