Interestingly apt picture art choice. Wow, what a knocker. What century is that from?
Nicely met the line and syllable count requirements of the 5-7-5 poem type/contest.
Good personification of opportunity knocking. I do like getting texts, however.
Good luck!

I totally agree. Some things in life just can't be delivered electronically. Great way to personify opportunity. Your book is very unique. And I'm enjoying the entries.

This 5-7-5, Call it Old Fashioned, has the proper formatting and remembers that opportunity only knocks once. Then the e-mails begin and never end. .....................

Hi Jessica, I like your poem and its message. When opportunity knocks, hopefully we are listening. Your poem has good sensory appeal.
Great photo choice. Good 5-7-5 format. Well done. Margaret

This was a great entry for the 5-7-5 poem contest. You got the syllable count right, and I liked your message about opportunity knocking. The "no text" part is clever! Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Many often choose to ignore a knock on the door, although sometimes it's God knocking. I'm a firm believer that we've come to rely too much on technology. Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I enjoyed reading and wish you luck with the contest.

This is a very well written 575 for the contest and I wish you the very best of the contest. Sometimes I think people think they can get so much by sending a text when it would be so much better if they would just knock on the door and ask. Patricia.

This is so very cleverly told with words and the picture you chose. How often do we choose to not hear the knocking!!! What a great 5-7-5. Good luck in the contest.
