Monica,

Welcome to Fanstory. Congrats on winning the 2-5-2 contest. You poem is simple but so true. We are but a blip in time - Here today, gone tomorrow. Scientist have estimated that approx 17 billion people have populated Earth from the dawn of man till today. So, we shall be one day one of billions that have come and gone.

All the best,

Eugene

    Thank you! The passing of my husband made me realize that 22 years together was really a very short amount of time.

Hi

This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!

Is it better to be here than gone then it is to be gone then here? That's a philosophical question for you. I'd be afraid to be gone then here because that would mean I'm a ghost or something. Yes, we are a blip of time.

Hopefully, we get to live good lives until we become the gone

You made this person think about your poem. That's the sign of a good poet.

I enjoyed reading your poem

Good job. Thank you for sharing.

You said a great deal by saying very little. This was an excellent poem for the 2-5-2 poetry writing prompt. You made an excellent point about our lives not lasting long in the grand scheme of things. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

    After losing my husband, I realized that 22 years was really nothing. I appreciate your review and your comments.
