‘Inspiration, little sparks that set souls ablaze’
Ideas building thought pyramids drafting invisible architects
‘Ranking effort above the prize, love’s treasure’
Honoring lessons learned, instructing framed certificates —priceless
****
A gnomic poem is a four-line verse/stanza with aphorisms and sayings in one line which are then described or embellished in the proceeding lines. Here, the first and third lines are sayings you may have heard before (with a bit of poetic license for good measure). Lines two and four are their factual embellishments.
Great poetry, Suzette💕 thanks for sharing.💖

Certificates always warms a child’s heart who receives the award.
Although they can be a paper that offsets so much anxiety in other little hearts.

Yes, exactly. The expectations of a prize and the personal battles towards achievement of that prize both take their toll. Its that price that brings with it the true cost.

Yes, yet it is the only way we know or practice.
Medals are however has always been endeared and received with much pride for the effort.
It’s the double vision we have come to accept.
