I can see why this monostitch won the contest for you! I've been looking back on past words both said and unsaid, so your poem comes at the right time for me. Very well done, and congratulations.

:) Bev

This work has reached the exceptional level

Review by Henry: What can one say but; "Congratulations Bill, this work was well done." Ten syllables, no more and no less is needed. Thank you.

A very good wish. I have often wished I had a time machine so I could go back and undo some of my mistakes. I wonder though, would I be any farther ahead?

    Thank you, Thomas, for your comments...You make a very good point. If had a time machine available to me I would set the date for the very first stop on the day after my graduation from high school. That's when I realized that I would soon be involved in the Vietnam war. Have a great weekend my friend...Bill

In most things there is a pivot point, when it is time to bet it all-recognizing it is tough. Contest winner-who am I to argue with that success. Looks right to me.

And sometimes perhaps if we'd left some things unsaid it may also have saved a relationship. But yes, sometimes sheer pride can result in things we should have said and didn't, great effort. No wonder this won the contest, well done Bill, blessings, Roy

    Thank you, Roy, for your excellent review. I appreciate your comments. There are so many marriages that end suddenly without giving each other a second chance. Have a great day...Bill

Hi there is no doubt about it, sometimes things are meant to be said or done in time or dire consequences follow. It is a truth we need to keep in our mind. This is a brilliant advice, I shall myself remember it.

You are on a winning streak at the moment. It is easy to see why with this monostitch. If you had said it it might have been a monostitch in time, but there you go you can't win them all. And what's a marriage when there's poetry about?

Hi Bill
This is a great message and I can easily see why this was the winner. I'm sure that many would agree that they would love too undo something they did. Way too often people don't express their feelings to one another and it just builds until one goes off. The next thing you no the marriage is over. Thanks for sharing. God bless

I'm really bad at expressing my feelings. I can be crying but asked what's wrong I'll say it's nothing. My husband is really good at pulling them out of me. I think sometimes the moment overcomes us and that can leave us speechless. *Hugs*

Hi!
A fine contest entry and winner.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing and honesty and truth often so hard to define and voice to another.
Still it is easy to see and understand how the inability to voice these words led to a marriage breakdown.
:-) Shirley
