'So good and the flow so smooth, like syrup overwhelming a plate size pancake, just perfect.' (RTM) As I write poems, I occasionally ask others to read a few for their honest and valued opinion and trust their sharing it such as the ones below. Over time I can describe the nature of my poetry is in two categories. The first are ones are ones I tend to be explicit in conveying what I want the reader to know and understand. The second are ones I write consists mostly of rhyming phrases without conclusions, allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions based on their own life experiences, imaginations, and speculations. Then, the crowning commentary, such as those quoted here who 'proof' some of what I’ve written, who reflect upon the poem after reading it. That is the highest compliment. Every so often when I read a poem you have sent me, I think 'oh, this is my all-time favorite' - and then another arrives that makes me think the same thing all over again.

Every word is perfect and the lines flow just beautifully into beautiful thoughts. It’s a wonderful poem. Thank you so much for sharing it with me. I enjoyed reading it - and I’m enjoying the after-effects of reading it. (MMO)...I love this one...makes one think beyond oneself into the broad scheme of what a day truly brings. (MHM) And finally, a reviewer’s critique: I must say that you have a talent for poetry writing, which is no small feat. An important aspect of poetry is attention to concrete detail. You certainly have a knack for this! You write with such beautiful, condensed language. It affects emotion and thought on multiple levels through your use of symbol and imagery. You make it easy for your reader to identify with your words. It is always easy to tell when an author spends time with their writing. I have to say that it is obvious that you have done a signifi

Without the benefit of salient literary instruction, I’m urged to write as providential inspiration may move while caring immensely about the outcome. I have learned that writing poems is cathartic and a wonderful laxative for the mind. Thus, to that question I respond...
