you sure you wrote this aged 7???\n\nanyways, what you describe is the monster inside all of us: it's not the monster inside your closet, it's the monster inside your mind that lets you struggle through life, running after material possessions, thinking you're not good enough, forcing you to live in the experience of survival and scarcity.\nUnfortunately, you only live in the realm and experience of abundance when you're a child - but then, it's still up to you to have a free choice in which experience you want to live.\ntc :)

This poem is really a good poem... Yes it is a good peom... The meaning is not deep but when you want a deeper meeanig then put the words into your life then you will understand the real meaning of the peom\n\nDesiderata \n\nGo placidly amid the noise and haste,\nand remember what peace there may be in silence.\nAs far as possible without surrender\nbe on good terms with all persons.\nSpeak your truth quietly and clearly;\nand listen to others,\neven the dull and the ignorant;\nthey too have their story. \n\nAvoid loud and aggressive persons,\nthey are vexations to the spirit.\nIf you compare yourself with others,\nyou may become vain and bitter;\nfor always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.\nEnjoy your achievements as well as your plans. \n\n\nKeep interested in your own career, however humble;\nit is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.\nExercise caution in your business affairs;\nfor the world is full of trickery.\nBut let this not blind you to what virtue there is;\nmany persons strive for high ideals;\nand everywhere life is full of heroism. \n\n\nBe yourself.\nEspecially, do not feign affection.\nNeither be cynical about love;\nfor in the face of all aridity and disenchantment\nit is as perennial as the grass. \n\n\nTake kindly the counsel of the years,\ngracefully surrendering the things of youth.\nNurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.\nBut do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.\nMany fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.\nBeyond a wholesome discipline,\nbe gentle with yourself. \n\n\nYou are a child of the universe,\nno less than the trees and the stars;\nyou have a right to be here.\nAnd whether or not it is clear to you,\nno doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. \n\n\nTherefore be at peace with God,\nwhatever you conceive Him to be,\nand whatever your labors and aspirations,\nin the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. \n\n\nWith all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,\nit is still a beautiful world.\nBe cheerful.\nStrive to be happy. \n\n\nMax Ehrmann, Desiderata, Copyright 1952

There is some attempt at rhyming, but it isn't very well executed.  The "musical" feeling isn't passed on to the reader through any form of pacing or timing in the poem.  For a young person I would have to say this is a good attempt, but for anyone 16 and older - try again.

Wow that's pretty deep. I think you are a good poet. I love writing poetry too. Keep up the good work! If you get some negative answers on here just ignore them because some people will just try to be mean to hurt your feelings. Don't be discouraged though, keep on writing. You can only get better.

well its good that u are putting ur emotions into poetry. its good karthasis.\nthe point of the poem seems to go a little askew in terms of imagery. in one sense u seem to be talking about nobody, then u jump to falling down. the transition isnt subtle enough.\ni also think u need to work on the rhthym of your poem. it's hard to get the right mood when reading it, if u've left this major component in poetry writing out. \nhope u dont get offended, i am simply trying to offer constructive criticism. i'd would have also like to have known, the title of your poem :)

I love the poem.. made me kinda teary-eyed.\nThen when I read that you had not met the woman that you wrote it about till recently.. it made me sadder yet.\n\nShe will be sad reading it, knowing she just met you.\n\nMaybe she will be happy knowing you love her enough now to write it.\nWell written poem... very kid of you to write it for your mom.\n\nI am wondering if you remember staring at her... if you just met her.\n\nNice poem though.

The world needs more Poets.\n\nI agree grammar is important..unless misuse is deliberate.\n\nI did get a laugh over someone chastising you for poor \n\ngrammar by stating one word was "more correct"!!!\n\nCheck my poems on my Yahoo 360 and let me know what you \n\nthink by posting a comment and voting for favourites.\n\nA 360 site would be a good way for you to post your works \n\nas well.\n\n\nGood Luck\n\nJimmy

its pretty good it kinda sounds like it could be a narration for a movie with a dude with a gambling problem or something (kinda) and i like the way the whole poem is counting to 10 oh and in reply to the person who said u said you say roll the dice too much i think he should learn something about poetry i mean anyone who knows anything about poetry knows that a stanza is one of the many tools of a poet
