'We can't appreciate the white if we don't see the black.' What a great philosophical line. That line alone makes this a six rater. A really brilliant poem with a great message. I would love to see this line emblazoned on every school classroom blackboard. Truly loved this.

This is well written and I think the theme and rhyme scheme are both solid. The poem explains and give insight into the writer and her motivations for the posts, reviews and general reasons for being on FanStory.
As always, I say, do what makes you happy.

I've shared with my beloved church fellowship, that my dear friends on fanstory are closer to me that they are, the regular interaction we enjoy here, although virtual, is indeed, very rewarding, there is a mutual respect and tenderness for our shared experiences is really incredibly refreshing, honest, both good and bad, "confessing your faults to one another, so you can pray for one another and be healed," beautifully written dear Debi, blessings Roy

Yes, we do have each other's back here and I'm glad you are here to share that message. You have done a beautiful job of overcoming and you can keep encouraging other to do the same with Jesus guiding us through it all.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Your poem was heartfelt, Debi. I liked the use of
couplet rhymes. Each of them made a great thought
about you or others or feelings. Your words were well-
chosen and meaningful. In addition, they were straight
from your heart. You shared about your life in a personal
way, but also wishes others happiness and offered sound
advice for those times when others hurt individuals. I liked t
the line about being able to appreciate the white despite
experiencing the black. Your words reflected your positive
attitude even if some act negative towards you. Through it
all, your faith shone like a beacon guiding others to believe.
Great song, too.
Thanks for sharing and caring, Jan

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Love your poem; you write such deep-thinking poems. If only we could lean on each other and feel like they'll always be there for us. Family is such a great importance in our life. We each have had doubts and writing has made us stronger in not doubting ourselves. No one can ever take our ability of writing away from us, no matter how hard they try.

Comment from Anne Johnston
Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem, Debi. I like the verse;
"We go through rough times in our life, when things do not seem fair
And when we lose our loved ones, it's the worst kind of despair
But life's not picture perfect, like those moments from Kodak
We can't appreciate the white, if we don't see the black"
It takes the rough times in our lives, to make us strong.

Comment from LateBloomer
Debi, sweet SOTU, this is a poem from the heart. "I'd love to sprinkle love and peace, on top of each rainbow." That's just the Debi-way!
Of special note:
--I love this second family, who has each other's back
(Debi, indeed, we do. If you do it to my Sis, you do it to me.)
Also:
But life's not picture perfect, like those moments from Kodak
(SOTU, the above is so true. The same goes for those picture perfect photos on Face Book.)
Sis, like they say, behind every door is a story. You certainly have your share of stories, and the rest of us do too, albeit some stories are harder to hear than other.
Well done. Great artwork choice. A pleasure to read. God is shining down on us. Xo. M
