Sue - Simple but powerful. I enjoyed it. Did you know that you were mentioned in elainc4's poem about poets on FS. If not, go read it. And I agree with it. Charlie

    I did read jbordeau's poem called "Not to Mention Any Names" about thanking people on FS and my name was mentioned. But, didn't know elainc4 had one. Do you know which one it is? So glad you liked this one, Charlie. Thanks so much for your review and very nice compliments. :-)) Sue

    Sorry, I had the name wrong. Well deserved name dropping in that poem.

I really liked this one Sue. It's short but packs a lot of punch. It has power and makes a very good point as well. Stay true to yourself and fight for your dreams. excellent

Dear Kid,

Squeeze off negativity, don't for one minute let it grow. Affirm positivity let your spirit soar.

Warm regards,

Short, simple and to the point - I love it. You can say so much in such few words. I love what you've said and how you've said it. You're overall presentation is beautiful too. Great job.

Warm regards.

Another well written poem with a great message. I also love the picture that goes along with the poem. One of my most favorite creatures in the world, also one of my best friends. Great work.

    skye, I can't tell you how happy I am that you gave this your highest honor. I do not usually do verse, but "felt" this one strong yesterday. So glad you liked it and am very humbled by your esteemed review. Thank you so much. Warmest regards, Sue

    Ha! I know. If review a haiku, it's 10x longer than the poem! But it's very nice of you. Thanks for your great review. :-)) Sue

Hi

just stopping by. This is a really strong small poem about an issue that consumes us all - well certainly me anyway - having self-belief. I find it hard a lot of the time and need to keep these kind of thoughts close in order to achieve. As you see I identify with this.

Cheers

Chris

    I have found that just exercising (using) one's gut instinct can trump a lot of confusion. We all deny it at times, and therein lies the frustration. Dang, why don't we humans ever learn?!!! HA! Gotta keep that kernel of passion burning, no matter what it's for. Now, once again....where's your sonnet? LOL!!! Thanks much for your review. :-)) Sue
