Starting my life after a long 19 years mulling about like Hellen Keller groping at the world opening my eyes to a bright new world and self discovery could be the death of me but i suppose this is what i'm fighting for... to be a leaf fluttering the in the chaotic wind waiting to find the rhyme and reason in this, my brand new season |

This is a very good poem, but I'm confused a little bit by the title. Is that Spanish or sommat? I know that the traditional Latin phrase which would apply to this poem is "tabula rasa" and I'm wondering if perhaps you mixed them up. But then again, it could be a different language than Latin. -Derek |

"but i suppose this is what i'm fighting for... to be a leaf fluttering the in the chaotic wind waiting to find the rhyme and reason" Those were my favorite lines of this piece. Speaks directly to everyone, as this sums up life in general, I think. Nicely done, I enjoyed it. The title did confuse a tad also, but I followed the poem. Nice work --Marie If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the most frustrated people in the world are those who know they're stupid, but keep trying anyway. |

I enjoyed this poem. Well written and very good. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Hi, I am intrigued by the title of this one. this is a wonderful poem with a distinct purpose... all in all, a nice poem Your profile says no critiques, but I would still like to say that there is a 'the' too much in the line "to be a leaf fluttering the in the chaotic wind"... looks like a definite typo... thanks for sharing... Regards, Sudhir |
