this isnt the best thing in the world...but hey i hope it doesnt suck *that* bad. Emotions run Emotions fly Emotions leave And are left behind Emotions swell Emotions overpower Emotions kill By the hour Emotions revive Emotions live Emotions take And also give Emotions weaken Emotions flare Emotions strengthen With every glare Emotions speak Yet have no words Emotions seek And only leave sores |

Ethel.. i enjoyed it..you did well! Two things though..personally, i think that title should be "Emotions", just because you only say "emotions run once...its just an idea..you dont have to change it..it just shows all types of emotions, and in this poem they arent only running, they are..flying, leaving...and so on..got me.. and.. the second stanza Emotions swell Emotions overpower Emotions kill By the hour I liked that one the best..its meter flowed the best!! Hope to see more from you!! ~ Jeff ~ :) |

Funny thing is I completely disagree with Jeff. The title is fine as it is, "emotions" would just be predictable. And I felt the second stanza was devastating for the meter, "overpower" had way too many syllables. Ah well... just my opinion. Aside from that I thought this was one of your better works. Well done, Ethel! ~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. |

This was good, Ethel. I thought the repitition was wonderful, and the flow, although broken in a few places, was overall very good. Nice work. I agree with Allan about the title. Well done. --Marie Don't ever be someone's slogan, because you are poetry. |

Well done on the over all poem, but the flow within the second stanza is completely off. The others work fine. I enjoyed the poem very much. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Not a bad poem. I've read better ones from you. I'm not sure if you put as much time and effort on this. Just my feeling on it keep sharing though. I love reading your poems "So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, |
