Very pretty. Nice work, and thank you for introducing me to some new words. I'm learning something new everyday. I enjoyed your poem. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
I was reading this, and I was like wow, this describes me, or the person I used to be. If I'm not careful, this person will try to creep back into my life, and so everyday, is a battle within myself. This really hit home, and unfortunately, this represents more people than we think. It's easy to have negativity, when this world is a mess. Nice work. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
Neat. I liked your concept, and the whole idea of this poem. It's something I don't have experience with, but am inspired to try now. I did enjoy this. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
I felt that song too, deep in my soul, and it spoke to me. People are so quick to judge someone who is different.. and why? Because we don't blend in with the rest of society. My bad, that might light shines too bright among all of the dull ones. I'll never apologize for being myself, but I do know from experience, how words can hurt. And how another person, can/will try to bring you down to their level. But regardless, what anyone thinks of me, or how they perceive me, I'm still going to be me. Demi is such an emotional singer, and her heart/her pain definitely shows through her art. I thought your poem was good. Nice work. Thanks for sharing. God bless you. P.s. I use to be homeless as well, and know what that feels like as well. If your situation isn't better, I pray that it will be soon.
All too often, people tend to forget just how BIG God truly is, and sometimes, they place Him a box. But this whole world couldn't contain Him and His Majesty. He uses the earth as His footstool. He's the one who created the universe in the first place. I guess some still think of Jesus, as that baby in the manger, but He's so much more. He is the Keeper of the Fort. I enjoyed my read. Nice. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
This is such a thoughtful poem, and reminds me of my own loved ones who have passed. The one thing people can't get enough of, is time.. and when it's gone, it's never coming back. I enjoyed my read. Very nice work. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
I have a Teddy Bear, his name is Alden.. He's from the Gundy Collection. I believe I got mine from Avon, when I was seventeen. He was a birthday present, and today, he would be around 20 years old. I have always been fascinated with those stuffed bundles of joy. But I believe, it's more of the "bear", more than the teddy itself, but either way, I enjoyed your poem. And I'm so glad that someone else shares my interest. Good job. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
I think we all have that one skillet, that's hard to let go of. But in the end, we have to let them die in peace. Nice work. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
Thought of writing children's books? I enjoy your work, and even the way you display it. This one brings back memories of when my boys were younger, and put a smile on my face. My children never wanted to take baths, and it sounded just like this, trying to get them to. Very well done. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
Diets.. ugh. I know all too well how that is, especially around the holidays. Everyone else is stuffing their faces, while you're watching their expressions, and can only imagine how everything taste. I enjoyed your poem, and again.. nice work. Can see why you were nominated. Congrats. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
There is only one "true" God, and every other god(little-g), He will indeed destroy. For God is a jealous God, and in due time, there will be no more little gods/idols of this world left. I enjoyed your poem. Well-written. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
I agree. So many animals are suffering, because too many people don't know how to properly train them. And I'll go a step further and say, too many people are too busy to properly train them. This world is a busy place, and it's only getting busier. I can't say that I've been around dogs my whole life, but I've had pets and been around all different types of animals, for a majority of my life.. and I may not know everything, but I learn as I go. As an animal lover, I'm not going to lie and say I've never made any mistakes with my pets(family), because I have. I don't always get it right. But in my opinion, if you treat them like an animal, that's all they'll ever be to you.. and when you open your eyes, to see them in a different light, as a creature of God, and as family.. that's when you are able to give them more of yourself and your love. A dog is very loyal to their person, and will stick by their side no matter what, even if their person is hurting them.. so if they can show such loyalty and admiration. I think it's only right to do the same. Like you said, the blind can't lead the blind, and so.. to me, the unlearned should never try to teach the unlearned, unless they're all willing to learn themselves. In the end, it's the animal who ends up suffering, and they definitely don't deserve that. I believe they a deserve a fighting chance, just like we do.
The North pole now lays desolate,
The elves, now free, share their regret...this poem has a dark and kind of eerie twist to Christmas, and for Santa himself. Christmas forever frozen in time, and gifts become antique.. makes me wonder what happened, and keeps me guessing. Nice work. Drew me in from the first line, actually from the title. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
"the gentle, creaking sway of the
porch swing sneaks movement
into a still life".. my favorite verse. Brings back memories for me. Beautifully written. Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
