excellent!
Very clever acrostic for the challenge ✅
Wonderful words of wisdom!!!💕❤️❤️
Beautiful
I like the flow of this, and the strong message of each line. Almost like rules for life in a way, which would make sense with the picture of the young girl:)
Well-wrought! Silence protects, but sometimes seals us in. Sarge gets it!
Oof. This was absolutely cracking.
Nahhhh, bridges are meant to be burned, especially if the person is crossing it to hurt us. Loved your Acrostic!
Love this!
I love your usage of childhood adages and the addendum every woman is an island-- if so, and there is a feminine aspect in everyone-- everyone is an island.. thank heavens there is a flow around them!
😂 because "No man's an island". Every woman is.
A lot of sayings that I've heard over the years. :D
😂😂 A new way to say say it and aptly - well done!
Lessons for life!
Yup! I like it.
I loved this one! Each line was a story in itself.
I really liked the punchiness of this one!
