When writing poetry
Sometimes you got the knack
But other times you wonder
I am I really good at that

When you share your poetry
You are happy if you just
Get 1 or 2 people
To read the poem you wrote

Sometimes you think you wrote
The best poem ever
And that is the one
That gets no posts

Sometimes you think you wrote
The worst poem ever
And that is the one
Everybody commends you on

Writing poetry
Is the one thing I love to do
I don't care if only 1 or 2
Like my work
It is that 1 or 2
That keep me writing

Poetry is beauty in words.

Experience is the best teacher...
and the more you try, the better you become.

Enjoyed your thoughts, Julie!

I guess life is all about doing what you love to do so don't stop writing.  For every one who comments there are probably more who read - one never really knows.

Anyone can tell you love to write Julie..
And if you're pleased with the poem..
it really doesn't matter how many comment.
There are days I read every single post here.
But, just don't have the time to comment on them all.
Keep on writing!
You just keep getting better.
Hugs~Nancy

Hi Julie. I didn't recognize your name.
You are so right in this poem.
Some of the poems I write that I think are really  
good, don't get many responses at all.
Then, one I think could have been a lot better, gets loads
of comments. Hard to figure out, sometimes, huh?
But, I love to write, too, so I just keep on writing.
Hugs,

hey Julie, I think that's what happens more often than you might imagine, that you post what you feel is a defining write
*a masterpiece*
only to have it fall by the roadside, and you watch in horror as your bit of fluff sails to the top
good to read you again, Julie

some days, it's enough to make you want to toss the keyboards and monitor into the dumpster
and then again, there is always tomorrow?

Ain't that the truth....lol.  Enjoyed the read, Julie.
