Nice one Dragonpoet! For me the criteria on these is if I can honestly say after knowing the rules and the required words if the poen still reads as if these words were all selected by the writer naturally and just happened to fulfill the requirements. This one does that and was amusing to boot!

Dear Dragonpoet, well I'd say you did a bang-up job on the use of all those words. And from the looks of it you even managed to meet that dirty deadline. LOL
Thanks for sharing!

You did a great job with this challenge to use those specific words. And I love those one word last lines who rhyme: boom, doom, zoom, tomb. I appreciate your message to enjoy life!

You've done a good job of incorporating all of the required words in this creative piece about time and how we let it control us. We need structure, but sometimes we create too much structure.

Thanks for reading and review this, Janet. Too much structure is as bad a too little.

Comment from royowen
An excellent moral to this poem Joan, I can remember someone once said that we ten to take care of the urgent long before we take care of the important, the urgent is rarely important, beautifully written with a very clever rhyme at the end of each stanza, well done, blessings Roy

You are so right we are always chasing the deadline and we lose focus on what really matters, like live a little. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

A really well constructed and thought out poem, taking into account all those words in the prompt. And you made it fun, too ... Well done!
One very small spelling mistake
'That (t)his is a shallow ... t needed.
Thank you for a great start to Sunday morning

Comment from kathleenspalding
Very good use of all those words! Poem was entertaining and flowed well and has a great message. I am not sure, but do you think...look on (instead of at) life...would join the line to the previous two? Unless you want it to fit in with both upper and lower lines...(poetry. So confused.lol)
