All...But... (c) Jan 3, 2003 Eliza Simmons All... Can tell stories and lessons. But... Who truly understands and obeys. All... Can speak of sweet taste of melon. But... Whose heart truely feel the sweetness... Of another person... All... Can draw beautifully... cards. But... Which card added special thoughts. All... Can sing praises to Lord. But... Whose heart feel with joy... And think of the words we utter... All... Can write moving emotions. But... Which of those are within us. Sometimes when I sing, I feel guilty. Sometimes as I speak, I feel powerless. Sometimes as I write, I feel it's just another words... Come out of my month...when I think I regret... Sometimes... I wonder whether I am... a liar... Sometimes... I wonder whether I have... a heart- To change. (slower) Some say... That writing is powerful... Some say... That writing is proactive... I say... If all there is only writing... I say... If all there is just preaching... Then... Then it is not convincing... Then... Then the words lost its power... When... When sometimes I wasn't in their place, I... I have no right to say I understand... I... I have no right to judge and say... That... It will soon be passed away... (upbeat) I... I wonder whether I am... a liar... I... I wonder whether I have... a heart- To change. Some say... That writing is powerful... Some say... That writing is proactive... I say... If all there is only writing... I say... If all there is just preaching... Then... Then it is not convincing... Then... Then the words lost its power... (fades) Sometimes... I wonder whether I am... a liar... Sometimes... I wonder whether I have... a heart- To change. --------------------------------------------------- P.S This poems include lots of diffrent thoughts and feelings there... anyway, another useless page of my journal. Please comment on it. Thanks. Eliza Simmons ~Sometimes when I look back at what I wrote, I don't recognize the 'Me' in the past anymore.

Thank you for your invitation to come here, to read, and to respond to this poem. After reading your poem, let me convey to you this important point... and that point is simply that you are very special. (Smiles) Your words are special. Your writing structure is special. Your thoughts are very special. Your responses to other's poems are also special.... and they are reflections of you and your heart. Sure we are inspired to have writing structures like other poets and we are all inspired by other poet's words.... But this poem as well as other poetry that you have written are certainly expressions from your heart and presented in your special structure of writing.... and that my poet friend is no lie. Be You!! Don't change!! Just continue to learn and to grow!!! GOD bless you my poet friend. -Bob |

Eliza: Don't ever think any page of your journal is "useless". Everything you write is important and you never know what particular poem will really touch someone or provide them comfort and inspiration. Your writing is a gift! No time spent explaining how you think and feel is wasted! Keep on writing and sharing. It is a big part of who you are. Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

This is indeed a 'thoughtful' piece and I enjoyed the read very much. I am an enigma, even unto myself. |

You are a sensitive and beautiful writer, Eliza. People who truly don't care, never give it a second thought. |
