Hi Ann,
I like your poem 'Hatred.' I'm straight, married to a loving man, and I'm also a believer that people have a right to be either straight, gay, whatever! Where all the senseless hatred comes from, as you so creatively express in your poem 'Hatred,' baffles me. I'm not "religious" and I find that most "religious" people are hard to get along with. "Religious" people have the right to be so. I only ask and wish that they, some but not all, would not superimpose their thinking on others. Thanks for sharing your work. Hope I haven't offended you with my thoughts about religious people but they really do get my goat sometimes!! Then again, from reading your poem, I think you understand completely. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Harry,
'Reflections on Turning Sixty' is my favorite poem of yours so far. I truly like this. I think of my brother who just turned 60 years old and how this poem fits him to tee. Your words are truthful. I agree. Life is a journey that begins at the Alpha start, already having happened, and ends at the starting point. Not all men (or woman) find true love, as you say. Not all find happiness. Every road is a destiny and not everyone finds the road. Those unfortunates aren't causalities of the journey and they are not at fault. Failures and Successors are not predestined. Harry, I like your poem and the creative words you used to express life's journey. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Nbnelson,
I like your poem, 'There is a Secret'- something you can feel but cannot quite know, like an intuition. I think I understand the words you write, though I'm not the writer of the poem, and your poem gets me to thinking. I think of gut feelings or "secrets" I've sensed about others, never knowing for sure, and wishing I could know. I couldn't know though. tc and have a nice day.
Hi StoryMaster,
'My Eulogy for Grandpa,' is a sentimentally touching read, as the words took to me right to the heart of love. It's simply precious, these memories of your beloved Grandpa, and I must say, your words have also sparked memories of my own grandfather as well. I'm sure your grandfather smiles at you from heaven. The words you write are very honoring to an obviously honorable man. I don't usually read long pages of writing but I loved my Grandma and Grandpa so much, I wanted to find out how other people remember their beloved ones. I know you'll never forget your Grandpa. I'll never forget mine. Your writing is creative and easy to understand. Thanks for sharing your beloved Grandpa with writing.com. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Harry,
I like your poem, 'The Re-Gifted Birthday Card.' It's nice and the theme behind it is awesome, a great idea to think about. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Sum1,
'What lives in the Wind' is a delightfully well written and creative point. As a reader, I am quite impressed. Keep up the good work. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Nbnelson,
'It's November' is an ok poem, though I'm sorry to say it's not my favorite of yours, so far. It's how you feel though and I think that's the blessed wonder of writing. If I can get to where I can write without a care, unconcerned with the opinions of others, I'll have it made in the shade. It don't matter what I think of your poem or what anybody else does. To me, writing is so autobiographical, even when it's 100 percent fiction because there's always bits and pieces of our hidden soul written in the pages. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Nbnelson,
I like your poem, 'Time and Space,' though I don't totally agree about time and space coming to an end. I think time and space are infinite and forever. I read your poem and thought of the moment though and how important it is to live in the now, just being, each moment another moment in the presence of the here. Sounds stupid, I suppose, but it's just my humble opinion. Keep writing. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Nbnelson,
I like your poem, 'The Farther Side of Dreaming.' It's a creatively written, poetic poem that takes me to my dreams, thinking about lovely dreams can be, especially dreams like the dreams you articulate in your writing. I like the last line, 'waking edge of dreaming,' and read it to be that the dream is nearly tangible to touch in conscienceless. I don't know if that makes sense to you. It's just my humble opinion! I think you color positivism in a nice way. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Nbnelson,
'My Mistake' is a good poem. Me, I've been married 11 years now to the greatest guy ever. I'm touched by your words because it's sad how love can be sometimes, given but not received. If my hubby quit loving me, I'd walk away and never come back. Who needs the aggravation. Right? Good poem, my friend. Keep it up and I'll keep reading. tc and have a great day.
Hi Harry,
I like your poem 'He Still Knows Her.' It's a creatively written, sad poem about aging and memory loss, as I relate. My Dad died but Mama is someone we "still know," even though her memory is fading. Thank goodness she still knows who we are, her children, but the dementia is robbing her of so much. Your poem is thought provoking and I enjoyed reading it this morning. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Nbnelson,
Your poem, 'A Voice, A Tune' is nice. I've often felt it's the persons who excel an instrument, play the music into deep mysterious places that very few
can understand. Your poem got me to thinking. I appreciate it. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Hailey,
Your story '11 Years' is heart felt and well written. I don't know if it's fictional or a true account of your life (or someone else's). I only know that the words I read grab me by the throat, as I can feel the anguish of the young boy whose father has left, and I sense his guilt, as though he caused it by not stepping in and saying something. How can a young boy carry such a burden on his shoulders to believe that he could be responsible for his fathers choice? I don't think that's the case at all. The father made his decision. The boys parents had problems with each other, not with their son, and I hope that the boy will overcome his guilt. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Stephen,
'Wonderland' is a GREAT poem. You sure do have a way with words. That's all I have to say. I hope you keep writing. You have talent. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Harry,
I like your poem, "That Old Geezer Who Died" and the creative play with words you painted into it. Gossip is a never ending circle. If I'm not mistaken, I've read a few of your other poems that have somewhat of a surprise ending. Just when I think I understand what's going on, I'm thrown a curve ball. I like this style of writing. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Queen Elizabeth,
I think this is the 2nd or 3rd poem of yours I've reviewed! This poem, 'Raindrops on the Windowpanes of Life" is interesting. I've never thought of life in this way, rainbows on a windowpane, and I think you've got a good point, creatively written into descriptive word play. Yours is a poem that makes one think. It has me. I can't speak for others but yours is a good poem to sip my morning coffee and reflect. Thanks for sharing. tc and have an excellent day.
Hi V,
I really like your poem 'Life.' It's thought provoking and well written, creative and truthful. Life is amazingly mysterious and I'm a lifeaholic!
tc and have a nice day in the life.
Hi Fivesixer,
I like your poem,'Weightless.' There's a lot of imagery I see, reading the words, and pictures are painted before my eyes. I think that's what good writing is about. Not telling the reader what to think but painting pictures with the words and allowing the reader to decide for him\herself. i think 'Weighless' is a good poem about the wonders and the heartaches of love, second chances given or not given. tc and have a nice day.
Hi Tim,
You poem,'The Beacon Shining' is a good read. I like how the words you've chosen to use paint such a vivid picture of the beacon and the waters. Good job. Have a nice day.
Hi BeHereBook,
I like your poem, how the lines spell out "be here book" with every first letter. I read the poem clear through before I realized that! Creative. tc and have a nice day!
Hi Emily,
I like your poem, 'Quiet,' and I think it's a creative write with a heart around every word. I, too, was a teenager once and I felt exactly as your poem describes. It gets better with time though. All that old shyness faded away and I found out that I was OK. Not perfect but OK and OK is alright in my book. Thanks again and I hope you have a great day.
