I also sing on plans while my headphones are on....trans-Atlantic, and I never stop until the plan lands! Some have called me a lot of names you don't want to know, and a few flight attendants call me a 'song bird' I'm not sure if that is bad or good but really I guess I don't care....I need to keep the pilot awake....

I like your poem very and found a nice run on words
that made the piece special:
"Hero of the Battle of New Orleans
with sailors, pirogues and Brigantines.
British attacked through the everglades.
Jean was waiting in cover to make his raids.
Red Coats were stronger by three to one,
Jean and Old Hickory put them on the run"
Great read, thanks for sharing and good luck in the
contest.

This story is one that makes one want to write to their Congressman or woman, the President or anyone to have something done to stop this field day on inmates in the Women's facilities state wide. What a very sad experience to have to endure for any length of time, no matter the crime. Thank you for sharing the story and the poem, which I might add was very well written...Good luck in the contest.

Thank you for paying a visit to my port today, and I'm now here in yours paying a little visit to you...
I fell in love with this piece and must tell you that the visual was so lovely and you brought the young woman, the dance and even the music right up close and personnel...What I really loved was the last line, in which it seems you had been watching someone entirely different, whether or not you were, leaves the mystery for the reader to conclude. Great read...thank you for sharing and welcome to Writing.Com....

What a little darling child you are in the photo...
Such a lovely smile and dressed for the Easter Show.
From the looks of it you should have been a little ad
model for a catalog.
Take care and thanks for sharing.

Welcome to Writing.Com and thank you for sharing this lovely piece of art with us your Writing.Com community. I like your poem very much and found many words that stand out in your piece, also I like the flow and rhythm and it works fine for me. I would make but one suggestion and perhaps to center this piece and give it a plum or rose color. Just my thought...it also does well just as it is.

What a strong mind and body one would have if we all lived and thought this way. I enjoyed your poem very much and these lines are stand alone without a doubt:
'But when the stronghold's broken
and the spies have been and gone,
I can put my trust in one thing -
that together we are strong'
Wonderful words to live by...God bless and welcome to Writing.Com.

You are mending, and your story brought tears to my eyes...for the mere fact that you became focused and reached out to your child and tended to her was your mending and God whispering you can do it. I know of other woman who have the same problem of focusing at any given time, and should their child cry out and need attention, they would be unable to give. God, bless and keep that fighting attitude and you'll always come out winning.

I love this advice and I for one will do exactly what you say! I love these lines think I'll keep them on my desk and refer to them one line at a time:
'So don't trip over those boulders
Of stress resting on your shoulders
Don't stumble over the vines
Of passing time
Step over, walk around these setbacks
And when they attack
Fight back'
Thanks for the advice and welcome to Writing.Com.
One little piece of advice, if you care to accept it
think of breaking it into stanza’s it's great.

What a heart wrenching story of death in the streets!
I feel the pain of this sad story, and like the mother and family in your story, I too am a victim of loss of a young son, just months after graduating from the Police Academy, because he wanted to help fight crime he gave his young life (21) as a police officer, leaving a young wife carrying a child and a mother who mourns him to this day...When I hear of these senseless shootings and the reasons behind them for the thrill of the name and the gang, I ponder, who will be left to protect the children?
Thank you for sharing your story and welcome to Writing.Com.

Very nice piece...I don't think you needed so many
comma's or periods. I found no other errors in the piece. Maybe the end could have been more pronounced.
"Most folks think I've lost my sense." Maybe (senses) would worked a little better. Just my opinion.
Over-all good read, keep writing and welcome to Writing.Com.

Thank you for this little story of how beauty can emerge from ugliness and bring so much delight to those who love to watch the butterflies dance and prance. I think this is God's way of letting us know that all is not lost, in what was but that peace will surely come to those who wait. This was a lovely story and one I remember forever. I hope you are having a wonderful Easter with the family.
Love Always

How joyful you've made my day today! I love the way it made me want to rush out and send thank you cards to all my wonderful family and friends here and at home, for having the pleasure of their love and friendship. I try to show them with my own love how much they mean to me, but one thing is for sure after reading this little beauty I'll try even harder....Thank you so much for sharing and I'm glad I stopped by today.

As a matter of fact I did watch the horrific story of the Genocide this past weekend on cable. It broke my heart to see how they were discarded with out feeling or remorse. I remember thinking why did no one come in to stop it, maybe because they owned no oil fields?
Continue to write and welcome to Writing.Com.

Wonderful, imaginative, filled with color and riveting rhythm. Rising from the ashes and continuing the journey in this life time. I love every verse and line. But these lines stand out for me:
'Princes: masked, poisonous spitting spiders.
No mere frogs, but brown recluse nightmares
spinning ground glass webs, mirror sharp-
mimicking what I wanted to see.'
Thank you so much for sharing and I look forward to visiting again very soon.
