Validation Of Life Poem by Dave Alan Walker

Congratulations, both on giving up smoking and having this poem selected as Poem of the Day. Well written. The way I tell I'm alive is, I read the obituaries every morning, and if I don't find my name, I assume I'm still living.

Descartes said Cogito ergo sum' - 'I think therefore I am'. Summed up excellently here Dave.

A little update, it is now 14 of February 2015, and I still have not had a cigarette.

Concise....and to the ponit.

brilliant, yes indeed...short powerful poem

Wow.. forty roll ups a day! However you have stopped smoking after 32 years is amazing. Relating to this you have painted a beautiful poem which has been selected as the poem of the day.

Congratulations Dave on this great write selected as Poem Of The Day! Powerful write you say so much in just a few lines!

Excellent. Sense of stopping the right moment is one of the main criteria perhaps of art. Here it has happened.

I could not grasp the idea until I read your notes. I can understand the obsession. Now that you are free from the obsession, you can feel the difference. One can think and reasonably so. Thanks for sharing this small but meaningful poem.

short and sweet, well done!
