Your poem is in good 1/9/1 syllable count though I don't pronounce energetically drawn out like that
good use of enjambment to make this one continuous statement
and a piece of wise advice

Well, who am I to disagree with this? it pretty much says it all; live your life to the best of your abilities, with as much enthusiasm as you can, and keep yourself in good health.

Good work, and good luck!

As long as we're alive, it's our job to participate in it to the fullest. Enjoy every moment. That's what your short piece means to me.

Good

Hard to create anything of substance in such a brief form and hard to review as well.

I felt you hadn't given us anything new or imaginative here, although your message of living with spirit is clear.

Good luck.

Thanks Steve for the R/R, you are right, 11 syllables aren't much to work with, but, I am glad you did get the intended message.

This is quite a nice little 1-9-1 piece of poetry in which you suggest that we can live energetically well with spirit. I guess we can interpret it in different ways, well done

Simple, but right to the point. The spirit within holds the key to who we are and what our destiny should be. Well crafted. Les

Thanks Les, I accept these writing prompts just to see if 11 syllables could make sense. You unlocked the meaning.
