Excellent tribute to TG and I agree. Well voiced, with strong tone and fine phrasing in free verse style. This is especialylu impacting-
People who cast stones
from houses of glass
may find a few cracks of their own.

(pun intended!)

Very fine presentation an composition overall.

I LOVE the new tist on the cliche phrase out of the box-

No box to think outside of
only one that hems them in

Brilliant!

Love,
rd

I agree entirely with your comments about TG, and those thickoes who don't appreciate her gift, Jaq.

I haven't a clue what she's on about half the time, but due to her way with words and brilliant metaphores, I'm always glued.

Best wishes, Ray

    Thanks Ray, I too am lost sometimes with Tammy's words, but it's a good lost, one where you want to find out more. :) Jaq x

Hiya Jaq!

Loved the double meaning of the words in the lines of your first stanza. I find that poems without rhyme or meter seem to communicate better with readers- they're just words, easier to read and understand.

Thanks for sharing,
October

I agree absolutely Jaq! People in glass houses should not throw stones. It is very unfortunate that there are a few on this site, who seem to gain some perverse pleasure in tearing others down for no good reason. How very sad as there are some wonderfully talented and genuine writers here, most of whom wish to learn and share with eachother. The exceptional Tammy is without a doubt very gifted and we are blessed to have her in our midst, as indeed is Mark.
Great expressive write sweetie. Liz.

    Liz there are some exceptional talents on here and they are all different, that's what I like about it. Yourself included. Maybe a wee bit of tolerance for each others differences wouldn't be such a bad thing. :) Jaq x

Well Tammy you do see clearly and see true and you have no patience for illusion and deception. Your images are beautiful, rich and truthful because you are fixed on that place life's sensations enter to be registered by your honest thinking. So although sometimes your images are so subjective no one can doubt their authenticity. I hope I am making sense. I reckon Jac Cee got it right. -Ekim777

Wow, I LOVE this beautiful piece of work. I totally agree with the message about how obnoxious some small-minded people can be when they cast judgment on the words of others. The reason poetry is so wonderful is that it can be written in any way the writer wishes, and the reader can see whatever meaning in it he/she desires.

Hi Jaq

I totally agree, how the hell can people judge Tammys ink. We are all here for encouragement, with the odd recommendation from those more experienced like Tammy. A great poem and a great tribute. I know what I like and if I do not like something I move on. Why upset someone?
This website has opened my eyes to poetry I have not really read before and Tammy has the ilk of a Sylvia Plath. Who would tell her her work was poor?

Great stuff Jaq

Spike
