It's Nice To Be Admired

It's Nice To Be Admired

A Poem by B-poet

Feeling appreciated

For what's been given

In the midst of your presence

Smiles have driven

The course of action

To maintain a giving and gracious image

A mire reflection of what it takes

To be admired in a nice fashion

As the stakes in life

Remain high

Being acknowledged

After every try to uplift

A downward eye for each head down

A glimmer of hope

Is all that's needed

To be renowned for

Inspiring every person

To be admirable

They can now see a reversal

In their character fortune

A newer version of themselves

Peeks beyond measure

More than ever

It's Nice To Be Admired

Striving to obtain this title

Should be a forever #1 goal

For all who want to be remembered

As pivotal role models

In the lives of many

Who've responded to the dynamics of their influence

Not bad. Word choice is a little simple, but I think it works for you in this. You have a good concept and you expand on it well, although I do think there's a few weak lines here and there. Good work.

A very good flow to this. Admiration is nice and all... but, to me, it is a notion that can be garnered from a distance. You don't have to really know someone to admire their achievements, or what the viewer perceives to be an accomplishment. I'm not too crazy about the lines "Striving to obtain this title Should be a forever #1 goal"
I'd prefer people to respect me, to feel a positive influence from my actions, maybe appreciated, but admired wouldn't be at the top of my list of goals. My own view, of course.
Nice penning, B.

Admired or respected? Hmm.. Are the two automatically synonymous with one another? To have one, you get the other? -thinks on it- I'm going to go with a no on this one. There are people I admire for some of the things they have accomplished in their careers and yet.. I have no respect for some of the methods they have employed to do it.
Better to be respected then. :) Just my thought.
Okay, enough on content..

"A glimmer of hope
Is all that's needed"

These are lovely lines. And you are excellent at this type of structure. On the whole it reads a very positive piece. Yet.. It reads a little different just below the words to me. Almost as if two thoughts/tales are being told. My perception, of course.

Very intriguing piece. :)

"It's Nice To Be Admired
Striving to obtain this title
Should be a forever #1 goal
For all who want remembered----(to be remembered)
As pivotal role models
In the lives of many
Who've responded to the dynamics of their influence."

I like those lines. They tell us what's the truth, the role that is in the hands of someone being admired.
I have only one little suggestion above (enclosed in parenthesis). Other than that, I really like this poem.
Nicely penned, Bpoet. Keep it up. :)
