just came across this gem of a challenge in Open#7..will attempt to respond to all the submissions for that challenge and keeping fingers crossed that you will like mine  <@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@><@>< I Am I am a quirky sense of humour in a weary soul I wonder if true happiness can actually be attained I hear the fascinating fauna and flora beckoning to me I see my dreams before me,breathing an audible sigh I want to derive fullest utility from my brief stay here I am a quirky sense of humour in a weary soul I pretend i'm a gorgeous hunk modelling down the streets I feel lost, for my dreams play hide and seek I touch the tender hand of Courage, to seek some solace I worry if i will have the will to hold on amidst formidable troubles I cry for the deception and hypocrisy masked faces stab with I am a quirky sense of humour in a weary soul I understand happiness is a perception of the mind I say fate delivers a hand in what i have been given I dream about being a Master of all Trades I try to control my scathing sarcasm with inspiring words of praise I hope i have made a difference in other people's lives, for after all I am a quirky sense of humour in a weary soul |

Wow, great poem, I can see where your coming from, a very nice, deep, well written poem that I enjoyed a lot . I love the style and the way that you intertwine two different meanings . L.of.L. Tom . Don't try, do or do not, there is no try . - Master Yoda - |

Kaile...you did an excellent job with this... very poetic and revealing... and that is quite a challenge you have taken on for your self to reply to all of those poems in open7- that challenge had a HUGE response... it is the favorite challenge of mine as it allowed us a deep look into so many of the poets souls here. I will have to come back to 7 and enjoy reading some of them again since you are bringing them up... I hope some of our MANY new poets will try it and post here... the format template to follow to do the challenge is posted there in 7 as well... it gives the repeating lines and the guidelines for the poem if anyone is interested.... again great wrting Kaile...I learned a lot about you today take care, jm What the caterpillar calls the end ...

Kaile, yeah, this challenge was a fun one to try out, and I thank XAngel for originally posting the challenge last year in Old Blue. And I must say, challenge well met. Thank you for giving us the slightest glimpse into who you think you are. Alicat |

Just when I thought I know you, you come show me this poem to surprise me... Kaile, I think I'm getting to know you better with each poem of yours I read. And I think I might be honoured to know someone as deeply reflective as you are. No one is perfect, so don't expect too much from yourself._,,,^.^,,,_ |
