A Poet Has a Heart and Soul

When someone sneezes, we say God Bless you!
With others we know, we say, may say have a good
day.

When we see some of the best poems here,
we say nothing?
It's so cold,when 60 visits to a poem have
visits with no comnents.

I don't know the visitors!
I never want to either, no, not me.
Just small minded, cold and hearts 
the size of a pea.

Most of us know the time each of us take
to create a genuine poem.
So why not type thank you at least??
Are you that unthankful at a caring poet feast!

A total three second process, holy cow?
Why not give an uncommented poem
at least a wow?
After all a human being wrote it.
Can't you be a true poet and show it!

Use your keyboard today, say thank you.
Can't you give a poem more than a walk-
through?
You might bring a smile to a poet's face.
Not recognizing another?
So tragic and a total disgrace!

*Not on the poem or the poet! The onus
falls directly on them, the poet free-
loaders.. Yes, them.*

Panagiota, you have expressed something I have often wondered about. Sometimes I see that 110 people have read something, and no one has commented. This amazes me, and I have no words to express how weird it seems. The ultimate rudeness,but I am a small-town girl. I was taught to speak almost always.

I guess you were brought up with manners, right? I realize it's only my point of view but you see it too. Poems that knock my socks off? No comnents. I don't stress over it anymore. We are a mirror reelection of our world. Take a look. Bozos get KUDO's, real heroes, heroines...nothing.Panagiota
