They say that life is very brief

some look at this in disbelief

whichever one you this is true

listen closely to my view

smile more and frown less

it may be hard but don’t stress

don't worry what others think

it could all be gone in just a blink

live every moment like it's your last

and always learn from the past

Don’t ever wait for tomorrow, do everything today

if tomorrow never comes

you'll know this was the right way

Hey there, this is an amazing poem. I mean it's very interesting and inspirational in a way.
I like the way how you used the rhyming words like last-past and less-stress.
The flow of the poem is great, but I got a little confused when I was reading the third line, maybe it was just my bad.

Anyway good job!

Hey!
EverWinter here, to review your wonderful poem.

I really think that this is close to perfection. The length is perfect, the rhyming scheme, everything is just great! But I think that you could exchange words in a few lines. The vocabulary in this is very simple, and doesn't really tug the reader. Use interesting and flaring words, because it adds beauty to the poem. Words like "more" could be turned to into "often" and "Don't ever" could be changed to "Do not" because it emphasizes the negative. "Don't" is very casual, like a suggestion. "Do not" is a command.

I enjoyed your poem, and I think that the theme you put into it was marvelous.

Have a great day.

That was an interesting read. It is fascinating where thoughts go, twisting and turning on a path of curiosity when there is no set trail for them. It rhymed, but not in a nursery rhyme way, and it fit togtherer pretty well.

"whichever one you this is true"
This sentance threw me into a tailspin, I do not know if it has all the words it should and it just sounds wrong.


The rest is all good, exept in one place though, I feel like it needs more syllables:

smile more and frown less

it may be hard but don’t stress

It is my personal opinion that you should change it slightly, to "it may be hard but do not stress" or "it may be hard but please don’t stress," I feel like it just needs a bit more.
The flow is great

Keep on writing!
