Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written 5-7-5 poem. It pays sometimes to be humble and willing to apologetic, even when we don't have to. We can win hearts or haters with our attitude.

Comment from Air Spirit
A very cute poem.. the picture is wonderful, as I love Norman Rockwell... his work is so realistic and is reminiscent of yesteryear, which is always nostalgic for me... and your poem, is not only clever, but wise... and it is a 'trick' I have used on several occasions... and true to form, it does work a great deal of the time!

A comical poem about playing dumb in a world where attitude matters. I liked the photo. It added to the piece. A good job on a short work. Good luck!

This is a very cute and well written entry for the Attitude is Everything contest. I liked this:
Apologizing?
Attitude is everything,
it pays to act dumb.
Best wishes in the contest. Blessings, Teri

What a great photo choice and topic for the writing prompt/contest of attitude is everything. Your format is well-written and your first line of apologizing as a question is a great word choice! Best of luck in the contest.

Very cute picture. No copyright on a Saturday Evening Post cover? Cocky people fall hard. Humble keeps your feet on the ground. Dumb isn't humble but it can work in a pinch just not to too many time or you'll get typecast-ed.
