Raindrops Spitting Fumes

War and murder everywhere; yes, though we have to cultivate the love air; nice to read the poem; congrats for being selected the poem as POD

Belated Congrats GW, Sorry I missed this one a perfect summation of how I feel most of the time!! Happy Wednesday!!

Alas...Congratulations on your PODT.. Best - Ken

Congratulations on POTD!

Congratulations on POTD Gershon. This is why I seldom watch the news. I am still looking for the "good news" channel.

Congratulations on POTD. Gershom, hope you find some of the alternate news feeds that give better stories.

The media is at it again, Gershon. It's all the Little Rascals fault...and Tom & Jerry's (lol) Congrats on POTD! -Bugs

Quite a striking piece, Gershon. Quite a "rain of terror". POTD worthy with cosmic repercussions in clear relief.

So sadly true, but I am glad to see you honored with POTD~

the burden is too much my friend. Congratulations on POTD.

"the daily news," is difficult to watch. A very interesting way to express what's happening all around us- "Raindrops Spitting Fumes". That's exactly what it feels like. Your thoughts touch my heart deeply. Congratulations Gershon, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Gershon CONGRATULATIONS my friend. I knew it was going to be recognized for the message and cleverness of its content. It was a favorite from me and I am so glad you received this Honor. Back again to congratulate you..

Congratulations, GW on your POTD. Way to go!! The start of the poem subtly creeps in the mind, then the last verse made a profound impact within me...ab

It’s a lot to take in Mr Wolf, more than we can handle, the burden that is, not your poetry, keep it coming! Congratulations on POTD, cheers David

Congratulations on POTD Gershon Wolf! Elequently said, I found it touching and sweet--[the description of the hood pulled over your head]. And the crescent moon's smile turned to a frown, while the stars shot out arrows piercing the ground. I like the crossword puzzles!

Yes it can feel that way sometimes … just too much . I can only take snippets of the news in small doses. Congratulations dear Gershon on POTD! Blessings, Susan :)

So true Gershon. Well expressed. Congratulations for POTD :)

A well deserved POTD Gershon. Cheers - Gary

One need not listen all day. Gershon. So happy to see you have been honored with a POTD! Perfect! I know the poison channels and avoid them. But I also am aware I am a active participant in change. Civics did not end in 8th grade. I never want another crackpot leading to the Cruel murder of millions. Part of that was people…afraid to talk and tell the truth. Freedom is not a given. Panagiota xo

I wish that were the answer, G. Alas...'tis not. Congrats on POTD.

Congratulations Gershon on POTD. I’m thinking that all to soon none of us will have anywhere to hide.

Gershon, emotional write, I know how you feel, and congratulations on receiving the POEM OF THE DAY, honor, Constance

As the old expression goes "If it bleeds it leads" Congratulations on POTD! Robert

Great poem, and congratulations on POTD.

As we skim through the pages of a news paper or look into the TV screen, we are greeted with news of war, violence and natural calamities. Sometimes we feel like covering our face with a hood not to witness such horror. Congratulations Gershon on your POTD
