At least it’s not a negative one! Just another passing feeling- Hopefully, soon, empty hurt be gone. Contractions tight Tears loose, Mind fight Can’t lose Again, gotta fight. As I look at cluttered desk, things around me this and that notecard, ribbon, prism, knife I wonder which would help my life. Again, gotta fight. I don’t understand why so nice, I always end up as zero. At least, it’s not a negative one! ~Sadie~ |

Don't want anybody to jump to conclusions on this one. I'm ok. Just hurting. That's ok, I've had lots of experience at that before and I've managed to be out on the positive end of the numbers. It will happen again, just without my best friend. He was always there for me in sickness and in health. Forgive my selfishness-I just needed to write. Sadie |

You'll be there again...I know you will. You're strong...stronger than me, I know that for a fact...and you'll make it. Hang on. Talk to a friend you know will listen, do the things that have brought you joy and let it come to you again. Stand, walk, remember to breath....and remember too, that there are people who care about you. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

thank you, jo, dixie, and ed Ed, thank you for your confidence in me. I took some of your advice and swam a half mile yesterday; I think I could have swum the ocean to clear my tears but my ankles were weak. Even so, I felt somewhat better. Thank you, poetic friend. |

A positive goose egg...now there's a thought. And I'm finding I like it, too! |

someone once told me a long time ago, good guys finish last, but I don't believe that, simply put, it's just that temporarily another road is paving your way....with is most significant and necessary. Very lovely write |

Sunshine, The golden goose, hm? Well, there was that Dali poem I wrote that had the suspended egg laid by the golden goose. I'll have to check it again to see if there's any hidden wisdom in it. YOU m'Lady are a golden silly goose. Luv ya. Lee J. I have come to love your sensitivity and optimism. You're one beautiful person!!! Thanks. Sae Sunshine, Oh now I get it! Yeah, I've had those goose eggs before. Knot like this one though. Usually, they leave in a few days,perhaps "someday" leaving a golden egg somewhere on the premises. Think goose eggs... |

A lot of thought and deep emotion in this well stated poem. Enjoyed the emotion. JL  She said: ”You look cute in the dark.” |

JL, Thanks for your note. If you like the emotion, I'm selling lots of extra at a garage sale next weekend. I'll save you some... Just kidding. There are times one just gets to the point, they have to laugh- Thanks again, JL. You don't know how much the thoughts people here mean to me. |

Don't view yourself as selfish for hurting or for needing to write. We aren't here just because we like you're writing, we're here because we like you, too  Just hang on... I hope that whatever the situation is, that things are resolved and better again soon. And if it takes awhile? I'll still be here praying Always, Alyssa Poems are made by fools like me, |

Sadelite, Well based on all these responses in here I'm hoping it doesn't total zero anymore! Hang in there we're all thinkin' of ya'. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
