Better I Went

There was a poet at PoetrySoup
 
Whose only wish was to help the group 

Poems he wrote every day

Just wanted good things to say

Disappointed though, he left to recoup!

This saddens me....I hope your recouping is fast, you will be missed! Writing what is bothering me helps me cope and reading others perils helps me realize that we all have problems. Come back soon. Hugs

No, better you stay. Each of us benefit from what others offer. Don't give up on us.

Your words are so important. I have to apologize that I have not frequented your pages as I use to. I have been fighting my own demons for a while all very personal. You are needed here. I am not sure what has upset you but I know you to be nothing but gracious. A gentleman who has always promoted love and understanding. One last time...you are important the poets here need you!!!!

I was out of action for a while. But now that I have returned I have no smile. For I have read that a dear souper who is well known. Wants to leave all that he has grown. Dear Demetrios please do stay. As each of your poems makes someones day. Dont go my friend, many will miss you. As they will lose a dear friend so true...

There's no need to be extreme. Things, sometimes aren't what they seem. But when someone feels that's not so. Sometimes they feel it's time to go. Just know that you can change your mind. For on this site, understanding you'll find. Peace. :)

Good morning sire! Seems I'm listening to a different tune as this doesn't sound like a happy limerick. My reply: Oh but I've been remiss, many pages on my list, yours should never forget, lest I will regret! I add my humble voice, hope it's not your final choice, to leave the Poetry Soup, or abandon the group...:) Kim

I fail to see how it would be better my friend. I will miss your wise words as well as your gentle and bold spirit.

This has happened before. I wrote about you in a blog...singing your praises and venting about the treatment of some. Here it is again. There is nothing I can do about it for I tried before to no avail. I'm very sad. den ksero ti egeina pale...alla...kseris perisotero. den emai eftixizmeni. ta mou lipis.
