Comment from Dr. Nad
You Can't Take it With You Is a very nice Entry for the deadly sins writing prompt contest. You write a lovely rhyming poem that emphasizes the truth that naked we came into this world naked we will leave this world. In several different places in several different ways, you have beautifully instructed us that greed has no good place and in the end, we all end up in the ditch, or grave, anyway. Thanks for sharing, embrace the love from above

This is the second poem in a row that i have had the pleasure of reviewing. Unfortunately, I have no more six stars to award at this time. As I stated in my last review. The truth is a gift. The ability to recognize the truth is an even bigger and better gift. It can also be a curse. Why? If we are able to discern the truth, then we have no excuse for ignoring it for the convenient lie that allows us to acquire illegal gains.

This is an excellent entry for the Deadly Sins contest. Greed is definitely a sin, but we all participate in it to some extent. Our TV works great, but we need a bigger one. When our cell phone is two years old, we consider it outdated. Newer, better models are advertised on our small 52 inch TV. Your poem rhymes well and flows easily. Best wishes in the contest.

I love what the Bible says about it. In the book of Job, when the devil stole away all that Job had as a rich, much blessed. He said, "the Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord." A beautifully written tale my friend, a very clever and skilful job. Well done, good luck, blessings Roy

You picked one of the most common deadly sins and wrote an excellent entry for the Deadly Sin contest. I love the cute picture you chose to illustrate your words.

Absolutely wonderful! I couldn't figure out a poem for just one of the deadly sins and you figured out them all, and very well too. You brought several chuckles as I read this. Good luck with the contest!

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This is a good lesson for us. We are almost with certainty sinners, all of us. So which one is it for me? I guess it would be too much pride. At times, I am prideful to a sinful degree, so happy that I have succeeded. So, I must be careful and remember to be humble when accepting praise and compliments galore! The other is sometimes greed. I want more than I need. It is easy to get into material things and want to have more until I have no room for all the things I have.
All that being said...I ask God for forgiveness for all the sins I do. The seven sins cover pretty much every sin imaginable. Thank you for stating them clearly for all to see.
Have a lovely evening,
Jesse

A nice expansion of the seven deadly sins. They are effective weapons in the Devil's armoury. Very tempting! Wrath is an awkward one for the fire and brimstone preachers. I think you may have been a little greedy addressing all seven of the sins. LOL

Witty and clever take on the theme. You should garner extra credit for taking on all seven. Gluttony is a big one for many--especially when eating is our main pastime in isolation!
