What a wonderful message! Uplifting and perfectly executed. All too often people drown themselves in a teaspoon of water... Great point. Great poem. Seraph

Hello.
I had to read this a few times before I clicked what your message was. However, once I had my brain in gear, I thought it was a very subtle use of words. A little too deep for me but well done

An unusual poem in FV style. Your message, while negative does come through clearly. I'm not sure how I feel about the poem for it envoked numerous types of feelings from this reader, perhaps it left me uncomfortable from the negativity aspect. Yes, one is either part of the solution or part of the problem. Thank you for the read. Lora

I REALLY LIKED THIS POEM. VERY DEEP AND EXPLAINS THE WORLD TODAY. I ALSO SO THINK IF WE DWELL TO MUCH ON PROBLEMS THEY ONLY CAUSE MORE NEGATIVE OUTCOMES. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, I WANNA READ MORE.

Your message is critical, and I like that you put it forth with a minimum of fuss, just as you suggest action without words. Nice job.

I liked your poem because it speaks of the 'in your face' attitude and negative conversations about the world at large. Sure, we can't get away from it but we can choose to be positive about the blessings that we do have! Well done.

Very nice. I liked the message, and you summed it up pretty well in the authors notes. I especially liked "blessings in need of counting". That's a very true statement. There's not shortage of negativity or complaining, but when you look at the big picture and compare it to history, things are actually the best they've ever been. Good show!

Very nice piece, Earthwriter. I agree that dwelling on problems is a waste of a person's time. The only solution for any problem is to take action.

I noticed the poem is a little on the down side. There are complaints, negative views, disease and homelessness. They can't be ignored. We need to stop complaining and do something.
