Oh, I can't agree more! Complaining brings on a lot of negativity and paralizes your creative spirit. I know a few people like that, and they's affected me so badly that I decided to part company. I believe, surrounding yourself with positive optimistic people is a road to health and productivity. Liked your eclectic style and layout.

This was great:

toxic conversations
noise pollution

A "Voice crying in the Wilderness?" This work notates many things that are bothering everyone, and so few put it in words, and fewer still in words as forceful as yours.
I liked the expression of hope and even better, the determination to change the world for the better.
Helping someone while expecting nothing in return is always a great panacea.
A poignant poem. Good work.
Irish

this was a very well written poem. i liked that this made so much sense especially as we humans love to single out the negative things before seeing the positive

Dear Monte, I have never read you before, but I'll fix that from now on! What a well written and timely piece, yes indeed wouldnt it be charming if people just thought more and said less and fixed things! So good!

Strong measage that is well presented. The form fits the flow of words. Concise and descriptive and on point. Only one question remains for all of your readers, "What Did You Do Today?"

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Monte,
Your poem goes so well with the book I am just reading now, or have been advised to read from several persons,
'The Secret'.
I am trying to remember my blessings, as you say here, and this is truly the important part. Because of bad memory, I wrote some time ago a prayer, asking God to remind me.
Sorry, I forgot myself.
I loved your poem and read it twice. It is very well presented too.
Love
Pupa

I couldn't agree with you more. If people spent the time complaining about their problems and used it to solve their problems, they probably wouldn't have any problems.

This is really nicely done. The words are simple but full of meaning. I agree with you entirely. Complaining , criticizing and whining can only yield chaos. Action that is positive is far better. kudos

Very nice job on this poem. I think you're right. Sometimes the moaning and complaining just become a hindrance to getting something done about the problem. I liked the style of the poem too.
