Poetic Ribbons

                             When you read a poem, respond, respond! A poet just sang you their song, their song!                 We eat poems like wolves, like wolves! Then we withhold our love, our love!                 Be like a god from above, above! At least say just thank you, thank you!               Make their day, their day! Give something of your heart away, away!                     January 25, 2020          2am PST

Indeed it is. So many poems written with ZERO Responses.? I think it's so selfish...to read and not respond How long does it take, for heavens sake?.. I know you know this very well. So do many others))) Many..plain selfish,too bad, Panagiota xx

Yes poetry should be commented on we work so hard on our poetry. A poet and poetess always want to read a comment from their poem. i agree. Have a nice day my friend.Your Friend Darlene

I know we cannot reply to everybody. I know you do a lot. My hats off to you. There are people here who work, some are sick. But, an attempt to Comnent is needed here. And the other side...is that a poem does not need comnents to be Good. That is also true. But this is a social site after all. Too many are ignored. Including new people. Yet, Darlene, we all love it here, right? Panagiota xx

Very creative Comnent, Tom! Super. You are so supportive to so many here. I learned much from you! You don't hold back as a divine judge of poetry. You comment as a friend. That is far more important. In appreciation, Panagiota
