*not happy with this one, but at least I'm writting again* ~Immortality ~ Full of ideas I've never shared Ideas through time are forgotten Through time I continue to die My ideas are all that can survive Like a lonely tree that falls in the woods If no one hears my thoughts do they really exist But once they exist they may never die My mind My ideas My influences Must live Must persist To live forever is only a dream Because reality has other plans But my influences shall forever live I shall survive In the Children’s minds |

Sweet! I don't see why you didn't like this one, maybe I'm full of too many carbohydrates at the moment but I honestly did like this one more than many things I have read of yours. The formatting was neatly done, spacing in of words made the flow somewhat unusual. "I shall survive in the children's minds" was just... wow. Just amazing. ~Allan Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. |

i have no idea why you don't like this, i thought it was incredibly well written. some of the phrases were very thought provoking and i liked the way you ended it. great job on this and i hope you keep writing. Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing. |

Hey this was awesome, im not sure why you don't like it but I do, so keep on writing man. Give her two red roses, each with a note. The first note says "For the woman I love" and the second, "For my best friend." |

Allan thank you sir... I appreciate it Branden, surprisingly I wrote this one fairly quickly. I think my creative energy is crawling back. Thanks buddy. Jenn, hun, thank you very much. I'm glad you liked it. And it FEELS good to be writing again. Banburycross, thank ya for reading my poem and your gracious comments. They are appreciated. And now a confession I fibbed... I do like this poem. But I figured by saying I don't it would be easier for people to give honest opinion of it. Plus I hate liking my own poems, let alone SAYING I like my own poems.... just a complex of mine hehe Thanks again Jason ~Jason |

I really enjoyed this poem. Especially the ending of it. Well done Jason....you know you write well, so don't huff and puff about how you don't! Very good poem! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

i liked the sentiments here...we all want to know that we don't live in vain, that our existence has some meaning, some significance... i liked the analogy of the fallen tree and personally, i feel if you include more such images, this poem will be even better nonetheless, this one is going into my library |

I think this is one of your best, Jason. The style is genius, and the flow is perfect. VERY nicely done. I wouldn't change a thing about it. I enjoyed this! --Marie subconsciously, i think i can eat so much to make my stomach hurt, instead of my heart. |
