What wise advice, and I enjoyed your use of the Six Word Poem to convey it! I admired the use of alliteration with the first and last word choice as well. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Communication is key to a good relationship. Effective use of your six words. Good alliteration and it's creative with the Stop in red and Speak in green for stop/go. Great artwork choice to further illustrate your point. Nice work ... Best wishes in the contest! :)

Comment from Judy Couch
This is very good advice for anyone regardless of age. Too often, we open our mouths and then regret what was said when we've had time to think about it. Better to think before speaking.

This is generally good advice, as it cam prevent unnecessary misunderstanding and resultant discord. The essence of it is that courtesy in conversing is both more satisfying and more productive in resolving issues. Well done.

You're welcome. That is my general policy in reviewing -- to first let the author know I understood the work before I make any other comments. That way, if I am mistaken about the meaning, the author can reply to tell me, as my further remarks may be irrelevant if I misunderstood something in the poem or story. In such case, I would revise the review based on the new information. -- Mike
Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Listen, states a basic rule when being a sounding board for someone else. Forget your opinion and need to share. Let a person air his/her feelings without having to form a conversation that limits their venting and ignores what they are trying to get to. Nice poem.

This was a short, simple, and very true poem. Although nothing really stood out to me, I think it gives out a meaningful message that everyone should take in to. Thanks for sharing. Good luck in the contest!
