    I loved the third stanza!! That was incredible!

    Your last 2 lines really speak the truth Randy, one must always go into any situation with a positive attitude and expect to win otherwise they will always lose in someway with a negative attitude..

    Very nicely expressed

    Yeah, I agree that we should go with a positive attitude but remain with that one even if the end resut wasn't what we expected. To also learn that if that time we couldn't succeed then the next one we might.

    I like the flow of the poem and the title after life.
    Though, it makes me wonder why you chose this title.

    So that we should keep that attitude even after life..

      Basically... if you truly believe there is no God, you will convince yourself of this and make it true for you. Your afterlife will be the nothing you expect.

    Love it Randy! The last stanza has been my motto for quite some time... you get what you expect! Why not expect great things?

    Yes the title threw me a bit off too, but I am thinking now its more of a perception question... after life? When do we begin thriving? Do we wait for life to end and the promises of a great heaven or do we live fully now? Why not both?

    I want to read more, please keep them coming.

    It's great, it has my mind spining with thoughts... the last two lines
    "Remembering that you'll never win,
    if you're expecting that you'll lose."
    you should make into a quote.

    I have to agree- this is one powerful piece with an inspirational message. The simplicity of the words made me want to read more. The relaxed tone of the narrator also is a factor in making this a good read. Also, the rhymes were really nice here, it added to the sort of peaceful atmosphere. Great job. Keep writing

    Remembering that you'll never win,
    if you're expecting that you'll lose.

    So true, Randy. Faith is everything.

    A really nice poem with a really sound message, which I agree on completely!

    Well done,

    5/5 Ingrid
