Thank ya, bud. Hope all'z well. As for Chuck - I'd flip him like a cheese omelet. ;-P

I see what you did there. Let's face it I'm no Dave Chappelle but not for a lack of effort. Thanks for the chuckism. :-P

Therein lay the irony and that we incur growth from having overcome all such tribulation. I appreciate your kind words. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Suzie. You're a darling.

Only had to bribe three for the showing, so who am I to complain a few Benjamins into a 3rd place slot. Sometimes a dude gotta flex a little cashola to get the people pointed in a direction. On a serious note, I very much appreciate the kind words. At this rate I'll be out of debt by 2040. See you on the playground, brother. more »

Like I just said to Sue, I knew this one lost a bit of feel, but the syllabic meter, I believe, may have compensated. I wanted to convey the sentiment without losing too much heart, so this one was a push-pull for sure. Still a line or two I'm not crazy about, but I can work on that later. As always, your opinion is valued and valuable as is your talent to be commended. more »

Mine came out okay. It loses a bit of flare in keeping with the five-syllable meter, but what it lacks in depth I believe is compensated for via technique. Great job, Sue. You rock.

Thank you very much, Kim. That means a lot. :-)

This was a challenge for sure with the 5 syllabic meter, but I loved the entire process. Thank you very much for the vote. I appreciate it.

Your words humble me. Your response is so well articulated and thought out. This is one of the best comments I've ever gotten. Thank you.

Thank you so much, Betsy. You are too kind.

Congrats, Debra. Great job! :-)

You are such a showoff. But I forgive you since you're also an amazing poet. ;-)

Beautiful writing. And that my name is used only makes the decision easier. Well done. ;-)

True poetry written by a true poet. Beautiful work, Ludy.
