Did Not Respond

Did Not Respond

Suppose to my poems others did not respond
Maybe I might have to wave my magic wand
On those whose comments they did not send
And perhaps in your ways may start to bend.

According to a little of the recent latest scoop
Requirements are must be in a certain group
If a comment is what you wanted to receive
Why all my poems would you give the heave?

Many of you profound poets my poems read
As if some food for fodder you need to feed
Your very self and soul selfishly replenish
From intimate start to end and finally finish.

Startling my sleek poem much have been
Will never see or read another like this again
After further study and more minutes you wait
You never read them after having to hesitate.

So hay hay and what should you say
Go ahead and send me a comment anyway.

I'm here :~) I also wonder these facts. To my surprise it's ok cause at least they stop and took a peek like a little mouse in its peep hole then ran and hid; even though no thought to what to write. A 7 sir and thank you for your service and happy veterans day hugs eve

It is strange. My most popular poem about golf has been read by over 1,000 people and I only received two comments about it. Jim Horn
