Maturity he called me mature or at least acknowledged so, my works ~ but did he hear the soft joyful sigh deep inside as I remembered when I was callow oh how so the wisdom of the ages from the mouth of sages did I long for then as I see now in the tallow the wave I crest to watch the best sweep before me in their gilded words of poetry and sigh for I would be as they as they touch on words of young or leave undone a treasured chest for all to read upon fact, fiction or fantasy are woven by the best of thee and harboring lights within the night as they write their poetry see? in the flicker of candle's light the quill has begun to quiver, and enlightening the chest of treasures in swift of measure the count of line and heartbeat's leisure I see maturity in the write of me, as did he who called my aged words mature and now I see as sure as he that I shall reach for youth and surety in the grip of my pen and in the grip of me. |

It's lovely to see you penning into the night ... your talent is a wonderfully inspirational gift to me ... so I say thank you for this lovely present, and Merry Christmas to you my friend!  Happy Holidays and Best wishes, /Kit |

Maturity - hardly an adequate word to describe what you've been accomplishing - I'm not sure I have enough complimentary advectives/adverbs - to describe the pleasure I've taken reading your works - suffice to say - I love all I read. |

Kiari love, did I not say that you had reached a far higher plane, you have indeed transcended. I feel as if you are beaming pure light and divine knowledge, and I'm honoured, indeed privileged to witness your ascention. Utterly wonderful love, utterly wonderful. Fly high love, soar on your wings of light, and delight us all. But especially me  Take care love Majestic Marsha the leader of your cheerleader Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

sunshine, as the younger poets read your words they feel that they are also experiencing the best passing by because that is what you have become in both style and word usage. Have you matured? Absolutely..is there youth in the quill of you? Oh, yes..and you instill it within your readers as well. Needless to say, I have been enjoying your works very much lately..write on, mature and youthful poet! |

Kit, perhaps I am like that diamond in the rough that has finally been tapped by the right muse...thank you dear...a good friend you are... JanetMarie, you never say anything you do not mean, and I treasure you, thank you... Mr. Yeats, the underlying, unsaid adjectives were plenty, thank you Sir... My cheerleader, thank you... 'Deer, your enjoyment of this pleases me, ...thank you... |

Karilea, I think Ballader said it best. Your poetry has changed, gone from beautiful to wonderful. *L* |

I also note that your free verse is exceptional...keep it up! "Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell." Joan Crawford |
