Such a lovely poem, full of wisdom and truth. I love the way you interjected the various sayings of various people. Very clever. I wish you the best in the contest.

I appreciate your kind words Pen, but was your rating a slip of the finger. I have never had one star in my life and they do affect our rankings. Could you please explain if this a mistake. I appreciate it. Thanks

It was meant to be a five. I am so sorry for the error. How do I make it right?

reply by the author on 25-Jan-2023

Oh thank you sweetie! I knew that didn't sound like you to give a one. If you go back where you did the review, you can change it to a five. as long as it's before midnight. Then press save again

Great compilation and explanation of famous quotes. To every man there opens a highway and a low, each man decides which way his soul shall go. You can say you are a failure, you fail one, twice three times, get up and try once more - you may have failed but you are not a failure. K xx

G'Day from Oz the country is celebrating Australia Day - not me.

Lol, but I just thought I'd name you queen of Oz.
Australian accents are the most beautiful in the world.
And so are you. We are queenagers!

reply by Aussie on 26-Jan-2023

Er, I don't like our accents spoken through our noses. My favorite is French, like your surname.
