Panagiota Romios Poet Couplet

Go With the Flow

    When few comments come in, I know it God's will. 
    He has something better for me in store to do. 

    I never feel alone or tearfully bereft. 
    Mans' moods, cannot steal my heart by theft. 

    Oh, they may try alright! 
    But it's only His will, that carries true might. 

    So dance when only a few comnents show. 
    It's nothing wrong with your poetry, I know. 

    Listen to the sound of your Divine Maker. 
    Stop trying to be a mover and a shaker!

Jennifer Proxenos February 22, 2020 at 7:30 AM Hi Panagiota, Great poem - we accept and are grateful for the good friends that comment and that we have made on poetry soup. I have made more friends on this site than I have ever had and love them for who they are. Blessings my friend. Jennifer. Panagiota Romios February 22, 2020 at 8:06 AM Hi again. Yes, indeed we do meet great people here. What's more...international friendships. Great comment, Panagiota xx

Tom Cunningham February 22, 2020 at 7:08 AM Sadly many don't bother, everyones time is precious, doesn't have to be war and peace, just nice poem, well written, takes seconds, someone tried a comment Sunday where you encourage new poets, needless to say, it died a death. Tom Panagiota Romios February 22, 2020 at 7:22 AM I know from you, Tom, it takes a second. That's who you are. You were raised right. Nobody will die of few or no comments. My age is showing in poor vision. Nobody who wants to retain vision should spend hours here. A few words encourages another. Moreover, acknowledges their existence as a human being. I know now who my friends are. I value each of you tremendously. Panagiota.xx

Arturo Michael February 22, 2020 at 5:23 AM Yes...You've got it right...a few good friend that's you need anyway...the site has changed in many ways... I feel the difference... Panagiota Romios February 22, 2020 at 6:00 AM Arturo~ the entire world is not a nice place! So while in principle, we think this site is heaven, it's quite real. Oddballs on TV, in our lives, too. Just hug a few here a day and that's it. Hug hundreds if you can. Those few jewels are so obvious. Negativity does not come from God. It comes from a darker space. I talk too much )). Thank you, my friend. Panagiota xx

Andrea Dietrich February 21, 2020 at 9:10 PM Just come visit me and I'll always be there to give ya a comment, Panagiota. I am so busy with work, I only devote my spare time here to people I see at my inbox. I sure wish I were a stay at home, because I'd be here all the time and visiting more souls that I would love to know. I see you giving comments to people so I know you try and I appreciate that about you. Sadly, you have to make five comments here to get back just one. It's a hard life being a poet!! Panagiota Romios February 21, 2020 at 11:26 PM I was telling Tom C, my limitations are my eyes. Have to limit time, my friend. The Retina is harmed by all the backlighting. Am not ignoring anyone, just time now sorely limited. Not one of us should be staring at a screen all day. Bad, bad news. It's Ok if people don't Comment, Andrea. I don't want many slaps on my back. A few is beautiful)) Do not destroy your vision. I am sorry I did not get glasses made for PC use. Silly, not to. I gave up being a comment hunter..love your honest Reply it takes time. Huggs...Panagiota xx

Line Gauthier February 21, 2020 at 8:31 PM It is very unfortunate that we are going through a phase where there are fewer comments. Hopefully it will pick up again. Panagiota Romios February 21, 2020 at 8:50 PM Maybe, Line there are just moe poets? Unless one is a speed typist with one line comments...then maybe there can be more? What if there were a 2 comment limit to each? Poets would have to move on to support more. Some here demand35 comnents a day...I do mean demand. Worse, must be by a certain time and on the day posted. A tad piggish to me. If not, they stop reading you. Why comment to those who never reply? Just turn off all comnents.....there IS a reply box for a reason, no? Pangiota xx
