Certain terms throwing sparks cause a flame to ignite in the brush of a poetic day, where the tinder has lain drying out for some time lacking something of worth one might say. That these hands fan the fire is as much a surprise to the author as one who might read, for there've been many ways of expression I've tried might there yet be a way to succeed? We've all doubts which can dampen the brightest of days and send what we'd relate up in smoke, nagging fears that perhaps we've divulged a bit much and become part of somebodys' joke, but, the fire is real and it burns with a heat known to all who have looked at their art and said this is the manner I choose to reveal what it is that I store in my heart. |

The soul of a poet is a fragile thing.... I so understand and appreciate this poem. I think most poets feel exactly the same way. It's hard to put yourself out there sometimes but I wouldn't worry if I were you, your writing is superb. Ida |

Dr M...first 2 don't matter? Very true, on the 3rd point may I please say; A resounding YES! The reason to continue can be found in your post above. It worked for me on so many levels, I love it, long may you continue to contribute for the collective enjoyment of like minded souls within these pages of blue.... Thank You for posting this I'm keeping it in my private Library. John |
