Who Are They?

Who Are They?

 

They told me I couldn’t,

Told me I shouldn’t,

Even dared me that I wouldn’t.

 

I proved them wrong.

I did it.

I made it.

I conquered my fears.

 

Now my question to them -

Who are you to doubt me?

Terrific, Tink!

I liked this the night you posted it in chat! Good job! Simple, yet to the point!

That is the quickest way I know of

to make me do it. Do not tell me I can't because some way or the other, I will. Way to go tink! Good one! Respectfully, Rett: "Next time you think you're perfect, walk on water."

for an off the cuff

you did well, though admittedly I get really squeamish around prideful things, which this leans to. (sadly, don't we all?) I think also it tends to be in a way, how shall I say "said before?" You've got a good skeleton to work with here, but perhaps in challenging yourself with it you can take it to a higher place. Mark W.
