Goes Without Saying David Is the Comment Goliath

When comments are in 

Such short supply

You can not even buy one

Even if you we're not strapped
for cash and had a pocket full of
fivers

And plenty room left to spare
on your paid up credit card

And then totally out of the blue

4 green comment bubble's appear
out of nowhere

Better than anything in your
wildest dreams you could imagine

That light up and you take to heart 

Like you have just won the lottery

And make you feel like they are
as close to 1 or know you as well 
as a member of your own family

Leaving behind what can only be
described as the smell of

Sweet success joy eternal
happiness

Gratitude blessings and wishing
nothing more

Than to let them know

And pay the comment or massive
compliment back in spades

So my kind sincere regards

To you David Goliath Sir

For making not my day , week ,
month or year

But all of the above and so
much more

Word's alone fail me to do
justice to explain

I probably comment on your poems more than anyone else's on the soup Christopher, they have a dark endearing honest quality to them, probably too honest for some people, and that might scare them from commenting, we like to burst the delusional bubbles, but sometimes that is all people have left in their lives, it brings them comfort, and quite rightly so, I thank you for the poem cheers David

Credit and gratitude to you Sir for actually caring enough to bother. Quality not quantity

Christopher, I write copious comments every day, but obviously I don't write to everyone. Many of us enjoy poems (yours included) and move on, especially if they are quite good and don't need comment. One thing's for sure...I'll remember the name from now on!

Oh my! Well, thank you for the compliment, Christopher, but I'll have to work hard to measure up to it.

Dear Chris, I know how you feel, how nice it is when friends or poet members drop in and say hello, and leave a comment. I agree with you they are in short demand, the views are not lacking but the comments are. I wish more people took the time to leave a note. Thank you for sharing your heart felt thoughts. This deserved a comment :)
