"Don't wish Do", is short, succinct and very much to the point. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. Every line of this piece is woven with the golden threads of truth. I look forward to seeing your next post.

A very thoughtful poem, good luck in the contest...I get the message clearly...and sadly sometimes it applies to myself...for a moment...
Your 5 line poem is a good entry in the contest...

Thanks for sharing,

Warmly,

-Syllable count is good.
-Effective use of one continuous thought.
-You also share a good message:
it takes action to get something
accomplished, not just taking
a back seat and thinking about it.
-Good luck in the contest.

Well done. Thinking about it never got it done. Doing, completes the task ahead, whether it be good or bad. We all have choices. One can sit and think and do nothing, it's like planting a seed and not watering it. I liked your poem and wish you well in the contest.

Great five line poem delivering a great message of truth. Actions speak louder than words! Until you act, thoughts or beliefs never come to mean anything and eventually just fade into oblivion. Another phrase I used in school was, "words mean nothing, actions do!" Enjoyed Karpov.

Wow - I can't believe this is your first time for this format?? Such a great message written so succinctly. I can see this on a motivational poster hanging up in business offices. Great job!

Excellent..and true of course. My mom used to say that wishing won't make it so and she was right . I love this contest entry because not only is it well written in the intended form, but it also hands out some very good advice. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.
