unfortunately, misfortune descended caught unawares, just like the shocked farmer witnessing a sky of locusts sweeping across his field, he spiralled into his inner web of bleak blackness he suddenly had an inkling why friends drift apart, for he certainly didnt want to meet up and face all their awkward questions, caring saints they might be he just felt like curling himself into a tight tight ball and roll himself to banished Siberia, severing ties with all |

I have been there on the edge of despair, a most singularly unique time, and welcomed the opportunity to know it, and better still the hand that was put forth through force unseen and led me from it... yes, I know this time... well done Kaile... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kaile, Despair and isolation, a pair of theives that often rob us of any chance of joy and peace. This dark poem makes me feel guilty for how bountifully I have been blest. I hope the farmer can see in his mind and heart the bountiful harvest that are yet to come! Dennis :^) Moonbeams radiate When the veiling cloud has passed Playful shadows dance Dennis L. White :^) |

kaile, Somewhere in the darkness looms a ray of light. I hope you find it. Those friends with the awkward questions mean well in their hearts. You may be surprised how many are there when you come out of that ball. Well done. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

I have an idea what you mean, and I hope it's not you who're feeling so pressured by your friends _,,,^.^,,,_ |
