    Thank you so much, Sally. Actually I lost by a mile but, to their credit, there were some really good poems entered. As always, I really appreciate your support and encouragement.

    I thought this looked a little bit older. I could not remember seeing it. Well... I loved it.

A very well-written poem about the two forces in each of us the one says we can the other says we can't. Whoever you believe the most is the one who will rule the way of your life.

    I agree with you totally. I'm trying to establish a writing career, and I'd much rather say Hy Did it, than Ida Bin a writer if I'd only tried. Thank you very much for your comments.

This is such a clever poem and very well written. It put a smile on my face this cold gloomy day. Ida Bin sad if I didn't come across this today. Good luck in the story contest, I think you have a winner here.

    Ida Bin a lot more confident if there weren't so many excellent poems up against mine! Thanks so much for the wonderful review, and I wish you luck in the contest as well.

This is very clever. I love clever writing. It shows an agile mind at work. Not many can pull it off, but you do it well. This should do very well in the contest.

I really do love this. If I may ask, did you mean to write 'said' instead of 'sad'. A really great moral in your poem that everyone should no regardless.

    Thank you so much for the review and four stars. Regarding your question, I went back and reread the poem and, yes, "sad" was intended, the idea being "I'd have been sad without you." If others question it as well, I'll go back and see what I can do to change it. Otherwise, if you could give me some suggestions on how I might improve this to bring it from four stars to five, I'd be grateful.

This is a cute motivational poem not to give up. Relationships brings many new things in one's life sometimes for the better. Ida Bin and her brother just needed to meet someone which you shared in your poem. Nicely done. Your poem showed that you should never give up. I like how you made the lines to rhyme also.
The image you use was great. I can see Ida and Woody in that photo. Good job!

Such a different and unique poem.

This is so cute and you use such hilarious word combos to make this a very lighthearted read. Good moral too. It is an especially good entry for the Story poem prompt. I wish you good luck in the competition.
