Hi Caressa :) Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and message of Congratulations! I'm ok thanks - just bad hay fever right now... my husband, on the other hand, has been ill with a nasty virus for about 10 days now, he's just getting top-side of it, thankfully... Kindest regards as always, Debra x

Pray things improve for you & your husband & know your kids would like that, also...Hope, too, they are doing OK......Here in Bloomington, IL it suppose to get to 51 degrees overnight,& that it so chilly for this time of the year here. Weather has really been odd the last couple of seasons, though ideal in the 70's during mid-day for a few days .... Think it's is hard for people to know how to dress for it, as it changes so quickly,& causing some to get sick ...Take Care, & Blessings Your Way, Debra.
Caressa
Comment from Aiona
What a lovely poem! It rhymes (which I love). It has an awesome message. And it tells a story, of a kind. The three elements of a poem that I prefer!

Comment from Imogen JH
Great little topical poem that has a strong underlying message. Nothing forced here, it flows nicely without becoming overly sentimental. A worthy winner.
A message we should perhaps all heed.

I love the poem. Time is precious. It does run out. Some things can be done only at a certain time. You ruin your chances if you fail to do some things at the right time. Live like today was you last. Great work. Good luck with the contest.

Comment from acerisestory
This is a thought provoking poem. Time flies so fast, we must make the most of everything in our lives. Your poem has a very nice flow. I particularly like the last two lines:
I'm living every moment now,
like it's my final day.
Well said@ Good luck in the contest. Alana

Comment from Carole Rosa
To the author of Living Every Moment. Wow, This poem was written for me. I have truly wasted the last fifteen years of my life. It's depressing! I wish I had the enthusiasm to do something about it. This is a wonderful entry for the contest. Carole
