ReplyDeletebuffalo: This is my first attempt at a poem. WOW!? ok for the first time?
ReplyDeleteHey, more than okay. I'll add my WOW to that. Great ending.
ReplyDeletetim-elvis: Cool, thanks. Maybe I'll try doing somemore.
ReplyDeleteA whole lot better than okay. It is extremely well done. Poetry and poets amaze me. You can convey such powerful statements and images in such a simple, clean way.
ReplyDeleteNo, you done really good Teri.
Teri, I know I've told you in person just how much I like this poem, but here goes again... "I love this poem." It shows the gradual process you go through in order to deal with something you can't control. Eventually you just stop caring. There is nothing worse than indifference.
ReplyDeleteWell done!!!
If this is your first, Teri, I say keep em coming. You are a natural. As you may know I have been away so I'm only getting to read this now.
ReplyDeletejl: Thanks... It came to me as I was falling a sleep one night. Yes...I was blogging in my sleep.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a good trip and nice to see you back.
