So true! We must have the will to act on things we want. Wishes alone never help. You used this form effectively to present your thoughts. Good luck in the contest.

Inspiring, yet powerful poem! It's short in length, yet its brevity contributes evermore to its message. Indeed, actions over thoughts. Actions win the day. Good job! Enjoyed reading!

Hello again. This is also a great poem as well. I really love the last two lines. I agree that poetry is a lot of fun. Especially when you are writing something that you are truly passionate about. Best of luck to you in the contest!

I love this one! It is so true and offers simple but profound wisdom... it comes down to the age old adage of 'action speaks louder than words' --- because I have learned the hard way, that there are allot of pretty slick talkers in the world, and since I am a poet / writer, I tend to fall in love easily with words... but it is the actions that spring from what is housed in a heart and mind that show its true intent and desire... thank you for sharing this little gem of vision and wisdom... :)

Good entry for the contest! Wishful thinking can be entertaining, but has little value towards getting stuff done. Your five liner points this out quite nicely. Well done and best of luck with the contest.

Hi there,

You really are trying out new forms, huh? Have you gone to Poetry Dances of ShadowPoetry to learn about other new ones?

I enjoy this piece very much. It is so true that only actions will lead to results; you could think about doing something forever,

Excellent work. The poem is a complete story in just five line. From start to finish it reads smooth with excellent pacing. I love the fourth line; Over the action on thoughts. Thinking can't just be mental if you want to accomplish something; action must follow. This is a version of faith without works from the Bible. Very good poem. Good luck in the contest.

Dear Kahpot,
The advice, often read, but soon forgotten, in your lines was well presented
in this pocket-size book. Title is sharp and easily remembered.
Warmest wishes,
Deirdre Anne

There is wisdom in your words. Your poem reminds me of my mother, she always used the words "wishful thinking". This is a poem that speaks to the reader, you say much in few words, actions speak louder than words.
