I beg all those who read my work to read it for pleasure and not inquiry....I again encourage you to read my poem...Lessons from Sonnet XX regarding this. I will NOT explain myself on content...Please...don't read too much into things.....You can never know what is fiction what is based on reality...DO NOT give yourself the freedom to speculate....Respect privacy. I reveal what I wish....fiction...reality...fantasy...MY choice. Yours to read or not.....If this continues....I may need to pull back....

I think the fact people comment one way or the other bodes to the significance of the piece and means that what you are writing has emotional significance. I for one applaud your fearless writing style. That is why I read and try to comment on all that you write. Have a great weeken Eileen, hugs Rick.

TWO VERY KEY WORDS, Nette....personal and sacred! When I read anything to my students, I do mention..."Not a single sound while I read this...these words are almost sacred to me!" I almost forbid them from breathing! ;) Thanks so much for the encouragement! Hugs!

I don't think you could hold back even if you wanted to. Your words demand expression and we are the benifactors.

Ditto to Licia's comment!...Pulling back would only serve to damage your wonderful poems...Don't you dare give a hoot or a poop about it Betty Boop! - Tim

I'm with you on that score, girlfriend. If we were to write only about actual experiences poetry would be rather boring. Well, mine anyway. You do know why that happens with you, huh? You give life to a poem and the contents become real. Don't you dare pull back. I'll drag you right back by your Betty Boop hair. Keep on keeping on, my friend. We need you and your entertaining poetry here. Warm hugs, Licia :-)

You're an honest and colourful writer Eileen, I'm sure there will be odd ones that read all the I's, me's, and my's as being you literally you.. Most of us though, will see your writes for what they, explorations of the human condition from your unique perspective. So stop getting your knickers in a twist lol and you odd ones, get real. Take care, Richard

LOL....you Brits....can't you find a better expression than getting knickers in a twist???? Oh dear! Like...how does that happen anyway? HA HA HA HA! Richard...thanks for adding spice even when you are TRYING to be nice. You just can't have a straight post ever, can you? Hugs!
