yesterday I posted a poem Challenge from Poet DeVine...and I was glad that Marge warned me for the misspelling of the word foul....it must be fool. I didn't check that word out in my dictionary before I wrote it down.....and it blew up my poem. well it made me sad, to see that and maybe I have done that in my other poems too...so I think that it is better for me to stop writing in english....if its not my language, but I always love it to write in these beautiful language. I want to thank Marge for being a real friend, and mailed me about the word.....you are a True friend, and maybe everyone was laughing when they read my silly word,.....but well that's why I think it will be better to stop writing. Thank you all for your support, but I'm still unsure now if it all was meant. Charisma |

I would suggest that you do not stop. Now that I know this about your poetry, I would read it differently and I might ask questions or make some suggestions to you, if that would be helpful (though I am merely a user of the language, not an expert). I wish I knew another language well enough to attempt what you are doing. You should be proud of your success. Kraw' |

Charisma~ You little sweetie - you'd better not stop writing ! You just keep being your adorable self and as you'd asked me before - I'll continue to e-mail you so you may know, learn and grow. I've always invited friends to e-mail me if they see something I've missed. Your poem was BEAUTIFUL and you need to put it back ! ! Darling - no one laughs AT a friend - Now get your booty busy and replace that poem. LOL ! I can write in English and English with a southern accent ... but I can't do the beauty of what you do ! Love you, sweet poet~ *HUGS* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I don't think you should stop writing..put a note in the 'critique' section and ask for emails about spelling errors..we ALL make them! Don't worry...besides, I read with my heart not my head.  |

Charisma, please don't stop writing... you write wonderful poetry. This is my only language and I make so many spelling errors... I use a spell check but it doesn't get words that are spelled write for other meanings so sometimes its of no help... Its just a part of our learning process... I not going to stop writing english because I can't spell, or because my grammer is fairly bad too... So don't stop, we'd miss you muchly. Parker |

when you crash into a wall....get up....climb it....and keep going.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

*wow* thank you all for your wonderful help and support.....and I don't stop write in english....as Marge and Sunshine gives me my encourage back. and all your support gives me the feeling that my decision was right. and Parker, I do understand that you make misstakes in your own language, but when you reads it back, you can caught them much easier than I do, cause its your language...the grammatic of my languages, is different than the grammatic of English.....so I was afraid that I made a lot of misstakes without knowing that. Poet deVine I will check the English forum out, haven't visit that one before. And Dopey Dope.....yeah easy talk my friend.....but sometimes is the wall hard..or to high....and well....can't deny that you are right....so I allready get up my feets now. thank you all......for your advise and warm support...... |

Charisma, how could I have missed another Dutch person? LOL Now PIP has tow Dutch women writing in English. If I can help you in any way please don't hesitate to email me and don't stop writing. You have no idea how many mistakes I made in the beginning (I still make them ) and I know like no other how hard some things are to translate. Munda |

Please believe me that I make mistakes with my English and it is my first and only language. Of course, with my Texas accent people would tell you I really slaughter the English language when I speak. I feel that when one takes on another language, that by using it and making mistakes that others help correct only makes them more proficient in it. Keep up the good work! |
