See you did it :) This was great. I love the form it's very creative, I don't think I've ever heard of it before. But you did a swell job my friend. Nik

You made one too!
Melody will love to see how many people joined in on her challenge!

This was such an uplifting poem, Temps:)

There will always be doubts and questions, hun...mostly because people aren't always honest with us and your instincts do tell you this and create confusion in your head, because often, you don't want to believe this gut feeling ( if you know what I mean).
Be true to yourself and live your life in such a way you can always look at yourself in the mirror in the morning, that is my advice, not only to you, but to all people.
There is such a thing as karma and it says good things come to good people..so you will have lots of good stuff heading your way, sweet pea:)

That is what we need in life, to live with
positive thoughts and face each day. Well
done with the form!

Incurable Optimism, something that we should all base our life on. You have described it well. The only issue I see with form, Joseph's Star, is that each line is to be a complete statement that can stand alone.

What a inspirational poem Temps, absolutely beautiful. I really liked the format this was written in, it caught my eye and held my attention. Also, I like how you said it was a disease, and used good wording like "infected" and words like that that gave a clearer description. A joy to read, although it was pretty short, it held much uplifting messages. 5/5 from me, take care.

Ooo, I like it. It's cute. :D I like the style you have it shown as well. I know the dashes are just so you can get it in that shape, but I think the dashes make it seem like the poem is moving, like a shooting star.

It made me smile. It's like optimism is a bad thing which is funny because the poem's about being an optimist. I like the irony of it. Great job. 5/5

Ohh I wish I had such incurable optimism... may be thats another way to lead a happy life...
very beautifully penned... nice choice of words :)

This is very nice. As a deeply pessimistic person, well, realistic, i wish i can be more optimistic.
Thoughtful write. And the title is simple genius. Keep on being an incurable optimist.

Peace, W. 5/5
