JD, appreciate your Likes on my recent work. I note you hail from the States where I visited on 2 occasions and very much enjoyed.

You have some great examples of muse writing in your neck of the woods - and what is a small pond like the Atlantic, when poised quills are ready for scratching away at the parchment.

Will certainly be looking in at some of your work. Thanks again for getting in touch.

Blessings.

What do you mean you are stealing my poetry. It was unfenced and not posted. I shall steal some of yours and read it out at a gig in Mexico, when I eventually get there, nobody will know it was not me who wrote it. Freda Carlo told her husband she didn't want to ask for anything because if she had asked for anything it means she had 'lost his love. So dont ask for love or shoes or money, if it's not freely given, I guess she wanted him to be a mind reader. I do that too. If I have to ask then I feel well he didnt really want to help me or love me anyway lol.
Ps very tiny people do exist I'm only 5ft 2 x and very smart and pretty

Your poems are fine
and rhyme, although
their rhyming scheme's
a little slow,

JD.,

Thank you for your message and complimentary words. It was very kind of you. I also find your poetry interesting and look forward to reading more. I share your need to be surrounded by the 'right people'. Those with whom we can relate to on a more meaningful level. I have been on WOL for approximately four years and log in almost every day. It was this site that inspired me to compile my first book of poems.

Your style of writing speaks of someone sensitive to life in its many aspects. Your ability to rhyme is very good. Your sheer ability to express yourself comes across as being genuine. You must keep writing as I believe you have a lot to say that people will want to read.

Maybe it would be a good idea for us to correspond via our e mail addresses and thus get to know each other better.

Keith,
you are very well spoken, a soothing nature about your words that I find, well, soothing. your insight is impressive, I look forward to reading all of your work. I like the comment, poetry is open to interpretation, mine sure is, I have many to share, and write more weekly. I very rarely "write" for correspondence but am interested enough to try. I believe in surrounding myself with the right people, and feel that knowing you will be very good for me. therapeutic actually. I thrive on captivating writing. and have found write out loud to have many talented poets to follow. loving it so far. to be continued.

JD.,

Thanks for commenting on my poems. I really appreciate this from someone who writes well yourself. I live on the edge of a small town where hedgehogs and squirrels are all over the place preparing for winter. They drive my dogs bananas. I am also pleased you enjoyed Faces in the shadows in which I revisit my youth when life was a furtive existence. But fun also. (wow)

Keep writing mate. I look forward to reading more of your work and perhaps getting to know you better.

A wonderful verse. I wrote poetry at the university. And then I stopped because I found a new occupation for myself, which, in addition to pleasure, also brings money: I play in online pokies australia. That's real money no deposit https://pokiestar.com/online-pokies-for-real-money/

Hi Crystal,

I really like the poems and sorry about the delay in getting back to you. Been off-line with tech probs for some time. I agree with Rick though, this is for poetry and chat about poetry etc. So easy to be seen as a troll, hacker or call girl with a request for friendship in this mad world.

Thank you for your recent comment on one of my latest poems. I appreciate the time you spent reading it and forming your comment. May I may also say that I admire your work enormously and hope to see more of it. I respect and value your work. Continue writing and when the pen runs dry go to immediately to the ink well.
Best wishes

You used the same term, "Atmospheric"

Is this a new thing?
Is it caused by Global Warming?

My pressure is rising.
