I love this. In the short poem you get the thoughts embedded that those who are truly great in life are those who performed acts to gain their 'awards'... I got the idea from this in which you are saying that those who have performed the deeds, but do not do it for glory, are not recognised for their actions..

Thank you for your time to read and review with your novel interpretation.
It inspired me a lot.This means a world to me.

Great ones are those who seek the rough and unpolished gems and help them to become the faceted gems.

[zainul]

Thank you Lena for the very admiring review.
You have correctly pointed out that great ones are those who seek the rough and unpolished gems and help them to become the faceted gems.
Thanks for sharing such nice information.

How very true! Some of us are privileged, but most of us are neglected and barely shown any honorable recognition. But, if the latter of us are inspired, we can achieve greatness by our deeds. It's also as though we are stars among millions in a galaxy. Some times, even if we are special, we might not be given enough importance and attention.
(Yes, it's quite a pessimistic view of mine, isn't it?)

Dear Reeti,
Thanks for the very admiring and mind blowing review on this piece.
You have cited the truth and opined in favor of unbiased awarding system.
I assure you are not at all pessimist and this view is not a pessimistic one.
I enjoy your transparency and talented endeavor and hope you will be awarded
at the proper time.
You have made my day,Reeti.
Have a nice time.
Sincerely yours,
Zainul

Hope you are having a nice day...SyberRose

An award is inspiring and encouraging...it's too bad not all can win awards. But, as you say, the truly great will live in their deeds.

[zainul]

Thank you for the admiring review,Marie.
The truly deserving ones will live in their deeds.

[Just Kim]

I like this, short and to the point.

[zainul]

Thank you dear poet for sharing lovely feeling.
I feel blessed that I could come up to your expectation.

[Emily Feret]

That is something to live your life by

[zainul]

I am very pleased to read your amazing review.
Thanks for the contribution.

[Dhaye]

Material award is only a piece of joy. The flattery may stay for some times but it doesn't fulfill your life. What matters is the reward of living life to the fullest...the peace of mind and contentment from your choices, because life itself is a choice.

[zainul]

Yes,Dhaye, life itself is a choice.
Thank you for the very admiring review.

[Trigorin]

Not bad. I've always been fond of haiku and I feel like the simplicity present in this one compliments your subject matter very well. I think I wouldn't have chosen the word 'award' in the first line if it had been me - sounds too banal and disjointed, to be honest, but I'm sure you had your reasons. Other than that one minor quibble, very well done.

[Marie]

It's a senyru, not a haiku.

[Trigorin]

It could be either.

[Chris]

A good life's view

[zainul]

Adore your lovely view,dear poet :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

it is the deed that counts, it is the journey that is important...

not what someone reaps in rewards, or awards.

so true.

[zainul]

Thank you Jacob for complementing with your precious philosophical point of view.
This has enlightened me immensely.
