Just having dreams, interests if you will, is everything. Shakespeare, something about, "Without dreams, what is a heaven for?" I'm sure the quote is not correct but sentiment is there.
Good luck and best wishes.

Ha, I got a chuckle out of this one! And let me add: Never say Never! Excellent entry with this poem. Perfect syllable count - good luck to you. We can get a bit caught up in counting the (red) stars, can't we?

I love the picture. I agree. Do not count red stars. They are dying stars. Always try to follow your dreams. Us what others say to help you. Do not let them deter you. Great work. Good luck with the contest.

An appropriate picture of a stylistic sun.

It took a moment before the penny dropped and I realised that you were taking about Fanstory red stars.

I like the presentation. There are three pieces of wisdom in this work.

Good poem. :) mel.

good luck in the contest
you have all the correct line and syllable count
you allow the reader to see and feel that one should never stop writing or give up your dreams just because you don't get the star you wished for
flows well
cheers Smoothiecool

Thank you very much. This poem is a great message to all writers on this website. The last line is cryptic as you anticipated & you gave us the perfect hint in your notes. Good job & good luck in this contest.

Failure should inspire one's improvement. I hear it is success that's hard to deal with. Excellent advice. Thanks for sharing. Les

Like the stars you get for your poems don't mean anything because sometimes people have their own retarded star rating thing and give you low ratings even if your poem is fine because they just didn't like your style. Gah! I hate them. Sorry, rant over. But you're right. We need not focus on the stars and focus on what we do best and that's write
