Reach for it Friend!
Come on buddy!
"Pull the shoot"!
Yes!
Friend!
Live-your-life,

Take care ...

be the warmth;
open gift ...
passion-of-yours!
Remember friend ...
you got to reach for it!
"Pull the shoot"!
Because true love is free!
Like driftwood adrift ...
we're all-broken,
picked up and-swept away upon the way of the rivers whimsy.
Moving together we're all;
just as free!
Well hey man that's just great!
Wow ...
no way!
You say no other burdens for me today ... ?
Yep!
I got it!
Okay!
Who could ever gather them all up each one all in one hand all alone anyway.
You know ...

I tell-you ...
I-don't-mind!
All too heavy ...
my-burdens can wait!
God’s got them!
He's got-your-back too buddy!
So take care live inspired,
reach for it friend!
"Pull the shoot"!
This-world,
we-where-all meant-to-share!
Any time two-paths-cross one ... the-other;
begin to move as one together,
right there ... smack-dab-in-the-middle,
my-friend the ground is-common.
So do take care!
Friend live a privileged life!
Live inspired!
Because I believe!
"Life just a glorious freefall,
sometimes a freeforall ...
this glorious opportunity,
granted free of charge,
given free ...
for all!
Cherish it my friend ... !
Like precious porcelain ...
cherish it,
Yes ...
all"!
Yes ...
friend!
Reach for it!
Go ahead ...
"Pull the shoot"!

I found the form quite interesting, and it did add to the piece's "uplifting" aspect with it's short, but powerful, phrases. I believe it would have even more power if it were cut down a bit, but that's just my opinion. Well done, and thanks for adding this to the group list!

very good. i got the impression that you were saying a helping hand is always appreciated and nobody can do everything alone. very good! thank you for entering!!!
-
Wow. This piece is definitely playing the field, isn't it? I guess that's the best way to get read at allpoetry...
This was a nice piece. Very uplifting. -
Option please.
-
Well we gotta have friends, they are important. Have to find faith in others and in ourselves and the world will be a better world. Easier said than done though.
-
A good piece in content overall. I sensed an encouraging spirit with uplifting phrases and some psychology
I am not sure about the form. It would do well for a 'shape' poem, but for anyone's notebook, the punctuation uses could be effective if they weren't as often used.
I would say to look at t his on another day and see if it reads as well as you intended.
Thanks for sharing it on the forum.
-
Well this is different indeed. Nicely written though. Best to you in the contest
-
Wonderful wisdom! We only live once so I agree... go for it! Well done!
Love,

hmmmm, sorry my ADHD kicked in and the spacing sort off distracted me. Good topic though.
-
well that didnt make much sense at all to me. i got the general idea, but i thought it was presented very very strangely. i didn't like your form, but thats my personal opinion. still, thank you for entering this in my contest, and furthermore thank you for following all my rules
-
Well done hon, enjoyed this one.
Good luck with it

So glad to see you have got rid of the squiggles and curlecues that have littered previous work. Couple of points on English: porcilin should be porcelain; cherrish should be cherish.
-

Lovely! And I've come to discover now more than any other time in my life yes He does have our backs. Give the glory to God and he comes through everytime! Blessed Be!

This is a wonderful uplifting piece of work James, written as only you could do it sweetie!!! Thanks for sharing it with me.
-
Very well written indeed. Your words flow so smoothly. Good luck in the contest.
-
This is a excelent write. Go ahead friend pull the shoot. What happens after he pulls the shoot? God is the answer I believe.
-
first I would like to thank you for your entry. personally I don't think that there ismuch for me to say here, though I do have to ask if you read through my contest...this is a religios poem which I had noted that I really was not in the mood for, as I already know all of these thing snad hold them to my heart, in this contest I was looking for something more personal, regardless this is an uplifting and inspiring poem, if you want ot keep it int he contest that is fine if you want to withdraw it that is fine as well (as I said all religious poems will not win) either way it is well written and in whatever you choose, thank you I do appreciate your entry.

ps if you keep it in the contest I will come back to judge it again, but I hold to my word just as God our Father does. -
This made me want to say it outloud and tap my foot. I keep thinking, is this a poem or a song? It has a beautiful beat, rhythm and some parts you want to sing and some you want to whisper. I LOVED IT! Only one thing I didn't understand; This-world we-we're-all meant-to-share. Did you mean "where-we're"?
-
pull the Shoot oh yes we can do it, thank you Blessed Be
Linda
-
wonderful, you have a nice way with words
-
Words of wisdom, optimism, hope and inspiration...I have never heard of the quote, but now I have....Every success in the contest!
