After the little storm last night The birds' song seems chipper As the sun changes cobalt clouds To rose, roosters' songs quicker As porch ceiling fan hums steadily And poet struggles out Words, the muse is stifled trapped within Unwanted emotions 'bout The audience reads penned thoughts At least some days they do Maybe they just glance, write a note As they pass swiftly through Do they ever think, maybe ponder? Over each small word penned Or is it a means to an end Somehow a gold star pinned At least it is not outright rudeness Each poet acknowledges The verse in unique and kind ways Not his wife admonishes When a few words she tries to say Will the wrong be righted Can forgiveness take ahold And love again ignited
This is not about soupers not commenting. My work is always commented on in unique and encouraging comments. Thanks soupers.

We write poems sometimes after much struggle. As long as we derive some joy on looking at our creation, don't bother about others' comments. They may not be commenting due to reasons varied like lack of time, laziness etc. Sometimes when we spot a great poet or a poem accidentally, we regret that we didnn't read them earlier. Enjoyed your open thoughts, Sara

Valsa, Most of the time it is a struggle for me to write unless I just let go and enjoy a few minutes out on the porch which I would like to do this morning. It is nice to find a very gifted person on soup, but for some reason most of them disappear over time. Strange. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Sara i love how you wrote this. I wrote a poem called Poems that go Unnoticed, that when I read your poem it reminded me of that poem I wrote years ago. I like yours better though.

I thought it was about time I dropped in on a Sara Kendrick poem and chose this because the title intrigued me. I'll admit that until I read it through I thought that your poem was about Soupers commenting (or not as the case may be). I'm sure many Soupers at various points in their time here have thought very similar thoughts - we are all human. I then read the comments that reference writer's block and totally understand that feeling..But I also detect that your words may be more personal than that: perhaps reflecting a current struggle and / or a past experience? Sometimes I read too much into things. :) Either way, an intriguing piece Sara. I enjoyed the read. Cheers - Gary

We all struggle... sometimes for a short time and sometimes for a long time. But the journey is worth it. Wonderful piece my friend. Truly thoughtful.

Thank you, David. I appreciate the kind review of my work. Life sometimes feeds us material about which we can write and sometimes nothing seems to surface. Sara

We write how we feel or what we see throughout the day, and yes, we are bypassed. I know I do it. My brain tends to forget to do what I need to do. Then forced and asked to come then I do. I can be called laziness. Great write my friend. Blessings

Well-crafted poetry, Sara; the use of rhyme and the subject matter add depth to the piece. The visuals, thoughts on writing, and wonderful lyrical tones all contributed to its attraction to me. Blessings

Victor, Some days I comment on a large number of poems and do not even get a comment. Some days I don't comment on a poem and get several comments. My hands are hurting me so much these days that I have slowed down my time at the computer. Thanks for your visit. Sara
