Hi Pookie, very good words to live by. Good rhyming and 3-5-3 format.
Well-chosen photo. I wish I looked like that woman while sleeping - lol.
A pleasure to read. This poem made me smile. As this is a contest entry,
I wish you good luck. LateBloomer

Pookie. I just saw that. After I read your poem, I went to see when the contest ended, and I saw that it ended. Sorry about only getting 1 vote. I thought that your poem was good. Better luck next time. LB

My poem was great!
Comment from Michael Cassar
A very night inspiring poem. The rhyming is perfect. The recommendation for rest is commendable. I have discovered this author recently. I find the work fitting in my curiosity and eagerness to study different poetry. Good work

Youesn number of voters
Comment from Paul McFarland
Not too bad, Pookie. This was certainly worth more than one vote. Again, your rhyming is very good, and this short piece contains a very good piece of advice.

Sleep escapes me as I have aged and yet when I was young I could never get enough sleep, now that I have time to sleep longer, I am always awake? A fun post, love Dolly x

Comment from Carolyn Dooley
It's a great piece of advice. Your mood will be negatively affected if you do not get enough sleep. Everyone wants to feel welcome at someone's home when they are invited.
Be on your best behaviour when you invite people to your home, regardless of the occasion. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week.

Comment from Rena Smith
I like this poem because it is a rhyming poem and the words flow together. It's also a poem that encourages the reader. Rest is something that we all need and I know I can relate to this poem because I don't get enough rest.

Updated: Good work on this 3-5-3. Three line poetry is difficult because it is so restrictive. I think to improve, rather than declarative statements, try setting the stage with more imagery and mood. A couple tweaks may get you there. What is striking about her features? What kind of rest is she experiencing? Why is she in such a deep slumber? Upped the rating so that I don't jinx you. Good luck in the contest!

This 3-5-3, Do Your Best, has the proper formatting and reminds the readers that lots of sleep will result in lots of energy for the work ahead.

This is great. In just three lines you share a moment quite well. The day before something.. big. I imagine a job interview. Very creative and great job with so few words to work with.
