I know there's a rule in passions that what we post has to be a poem, but i just have to say what's on my mind I don't know about other people, but every reply that I get makes me feel better. It gives me more incentive to write more and post it here on Passions. That one time my poem went over 30 replies really helped me a lot. Not only with my self confidence in writting, but also with the situation at hand. Where am I getting to? I know I'm no moderator, but still I think we should reply more to all the other poems. I try my best, but I do have limited time. It makes me feel bad to see some poems with no replies up to 3 replies. Common know, we could do better than that. I know we can Please join me to make sure all poets would get at least 7 replies. Or maybe even 10 replies per poem. Are you with me? Sorry moderators --- please don't delete I'll add a poem Roses are red Violets are blue I'll reply more and more And so are you!!! < !signature--> As i wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR [This message has been edited by acire (edited 08-31-2000).] |

Acire, you are exactly right!! I try to reply to as many posts as I can, but I also have limited time, made even more limited with my moderator duties. I hope everyone reads this and makes an effort to reply more! ![]() "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde "The robbed that smiles steals something from the thief" -Shakespea |

Hey babe! You're sooo exactly right. Sometimes when I get bored I go back to the poems posted days before to make sure there arent any with 0 replies. CAuse i know how it feels to have no one reply. So i'll keep posting!! ![]() ~!*DQ*!~ "One fine day you'll look at me and know that love was meant to be" ~Carol King |

Thanks so much for bringing this isssue up again! I as a moderator also have limited time to reply due to my duties here, but I do what I can. If everyone chipped in a little bit more this problem could very quickly be turned around! ![]() *Krista Knutson* "Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart." -Confucious |

Hey,What it do? I just wanted yooh to know that i agree w/you 100% and I must admit I don't reply very often but when I do it's nothing but good replys.But lately I've noticed not everyone has been giving rave reviews towards others work and I think if you aint sayin nothin worth listening to yooh need to keep it to yourself.Not to be rude but not everyone like "constructive criticism".Thanks and Stay Tru |

i so agree w/ that. And i know we all don't have much time on our hands, I mean i just started back up in school about 3 weeks ago, but i think it is a great idea, and we should all try to do our part. ~¤*¤~iF yOu LuV sOmEoNe, PuT ThEiR nAmE iN a CiRcLe, iNsTeAd Of A hEaRt, BcUz HeArTz CaN bReAk, BuT CiRcLeZ gO oN 4eVeR~¤*¤~ |

Roses are red Violets are blue My butt is green (haha j/k) But I agree with you too! Ok so my butt isn't green. A very sheer white shade I might add...but anyways...I reply to every poem I read. However, my time is severely limited to the times that I am not eating, sleeping, spending time with my boyfriend, attending the school I despise, and writing reports. But if everyone else is putting forth more effort...I too shall do the same. Thanks for the eye opener! ![]() ~*~Jessica~*~ ~*~Why is it that love always starts with a HuG grows with a kIsS and ends with a TeAr?!?~*~ |

it seems this msg is defeating its on purpose. It's getting more replies then most of the poems in here. real nice eh? The world is like a mirror; frown at it, and it frowns at you. Smile and it smiles, too Be kind,for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle |

I noticed that someone was having a problem with this so I am bumping it up so that EVERYONE can read this!!!If we all decided to share our thoughts about the poems instead of just posting up our own replies then there would be much happier teens!!!So start sharing your thoughts!!!< !signature--> It TaKeS a MiNuTe To LiKe SoMeOnE, aN hOuR tO hAvE a CrUsH oN sOmEoNe & A dAy To FaLl In LoVe, BuT iT tAkEs A lIfEtImE tO fOrGeT sOmEoNe.

I totally agree woo, I find that the more relpies I recieve the better I feel about dealing witht he situation, I always write whenever I'm going through hard times in my life, thats when you will see more poems showing up from me, and I like to recieve replies to boost my self confidence. It really helps, I'm with you on this. smiles ![]() ![]() Life isn't about holding grudges or starting fights life is meant to be enjoyed |

Ok, another poet agrees with you man. Great idea, it makes feel great hearing what all of you have to say about our poems, so let's work together and let's try to reply as much poems as time allow. Bye, and great idea. It's been raining since you left me. |

I ohso agree with you. I myself have posted and Have not got any replies. I have recently posted a poem called All in All. But anyway, I also know how it feels to not be replied to. Here is a poem to go along with the others. Roses are red violets are blue. Those without replies cry."Boo-Hoo!" not meaning to sound babyish or anything ![]() "Life is a game and we have to play, but in the end...we all die."-by me! |
