Too many times family, being what they think is brutally honest, begets dark feeling from the negative side. Your sonnet style is enjoyable and my pleasure to have reviewed.
Good luck.

Hi Sue...this is an excellent poem with a good message about life and its lessons. Written in sonnet form works well here. A little tweaking of the iambics and this could be a fine sonnet. Well done...good luck in the contest....blessings...chey

I think this is a very cool poem because no one can influence or push our buttons worse than family and I felt your vibe on this Six, you made me think of where I dont want to go. Good stuff

Negativity is far more contagious than happiness. Your life lesson poem teaches us, that to break free of negative influences, we must choose not to think as others do. Especially family. It's hard, but worth the effort, if one can rise above the din and look for the silver lining, when all about them are clouds.

What a great philosophy. I wrote a column years ago about this very thing. We must be on the same wave length. Your poem says it very well. Take your own advice, it's very good. You kept the rhyme and ended with a good lesson learned. Goodluck

I think you have a good message here. Allot of people don't realize the distruction they are doing to themselves by being negative. I would much rather spend time with a positive person than a negative one. Very good life lesson. Good luck in the contest.
