Comment from Brian Hill
The message is quite clear and the rhyming drifts very nicely. I especially like the last two lines. Very quotable I think
"Coming into life with the Spirit's breath,
Leaving this life at the doorstep of death."
Well done and thank you..

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Hello anon, a well told poem with good rhyme in couplet form. You gave some good reasons for the meaning of life. I particularly like your final couplet -
Coming into life with the Spirit's breath,
Leaving this life at the doorstep of death...... good couplet and good use of alliteration with 'doorstep of death'. Good Luck - Dorothy

Comment from Therese Caron
Lovely poem. I like the line about being open despite some fear. I also like the part about raising a family with integrity. The image you chose is also very good and fits well with the poetry. I think it has a good chance in the contest.

I enjoyed the poem and your author's notes left an even deeper message for me. Truly, we do answer this query in our own way with our own history and experiences coming into play.
Well done and certainly a thought to ponder today.

Comment from duchessofdrumborg
"The Meaning of Life", is an extremely well-written and and deftly descriptive piece. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. To me, this is a six, but sadly, I've run out of them. Good luck with the contest.

A very fine poetic work you have mused here. Great end rhyming as well. Your author notes pose a question that only each individual could answer for themselves. I especially liked the last two lines of your poem. Also, I thought the artwork chosen for your theme very appropriate.
