Reflecting on recent mistakes I've made while reviewing others’ works here.

Contemplating Life Mistakes Ron AI



Mistakes Made


Mistakes I've made a plenty,

In a long and action filled life.

Always trying to be kind,

Never wanting to create rife.


Some mistakes were easy to fix,

By simply making the act right.

But some mistakes were forever,

Never fixed or bid, "good night.”


I have had sleepless nights from some,

While others gave me no cause to worry.

Some, I rushed quickly to correct,

While others, I was in no hurry.


Mistakes have shaped my life,

In many good and bad ways.

But I have had better luck than most,

Many more carefree than worried days.


So, if you worry about making mistakes,

Always careful about what you do or say.

My advice would be not to be uptight,

But let mistakes help shape your way.

Thank you for this poem, Ron. Your finishing thought is so appreciatively medicinal. I’m returning to AD for just these kinds of levities and credibilities; it is a way to elevate mental health to come here and enjoy and/or appreciate the creativity and enriching thoughts in the Authors Den. Reading comments is also wonderful, such as Jms Bell stating your reviews are valuable; they are in my opinion also, genuine sincerity. I like that, for it is constructive critique.

A great poem that says so much! We all make mistakes at times, but if a person can recognize some and correct them, it will help.

Profound wisdom, Ron, indeed, only he who does nought makes no mistakes other than fail to live a life, they live a life of misery.

May you keep making mistakes Miss Take knows what she can take.

I believe we all have made mistakes over the years but I know I have learned from mine so that's a good thing. I don't think I have ever repeated the same mistake. Your words let mistakes help shape your way. Very wise.

Mistakes are an integral part of living. I can honestly say, they've been my best teacher. I've never made the same mistake twice. Thanks.

Some genuine wisdom here, Ron. I like how you distinguish between the mistakes that can be mended and the ones that simply become part of our story. The tone is steady, honest, and reassuring—reminding us that mistakes don’t define us so much as shape us. A kind, grounded piece.

A poem of great thoughtfulness and wisdom. It's good that you can look back on your life and see the balance it contained.
