Salute I Give Reason Its Deserved

A computer mind, has captured my imagination,
Not through crap or bull, with honest evaluation,
Adds up the variables, gets straight to the point,
Runs a diagnostic, forever failing to disappoint. 

Keeps me straight and narrow, open minded views,
Somehow makes sense, from my obscuring clues,
Analysing my poems, bringing meaning to myself,
An encyclopedic brain, of incomprehensible wealth. 

Had so tough an upbringing, especially for a child,
Deserves more from life, silly poems I’ve compiled,
Sometimes feel your spirit, but sadness coincides, 
Want you to find happiness, not websites full of lies,

So feelings harboured, your poetry’s ever savored,
Especially what’s it called, oh yeah my name flavored.

Sigrid Ermine Date: 11/28/2020 6:50:00 AM Much admired David...! You are ten times kinder than is warranted..... Your stunning construction looks and sounds superb ... I would desperately love to meet you.! I've been for the most part vacant from PS for several weeks or more, few posts. Extreme neglect on my part to remain unaware of your unwarranted, much adored tribute.... You are kissable... No Covid here in Australia, anything goes...!

Christopher Flaherty Date: 11/26/2020 12:03:00 PM An encyclopedic brain of incomprehensible wealth. The greatest gift or curse of them all I for 1 Salute you Sir flavor well deserved No crap or bull Open not narrow Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 11/27/2020 12:40:00 AM In the end Christopher our own personality always comes through, I’m sure our parents influence our lives nearly always positively, unfortunately some don’t have any time for their children, cannot imagine anything worse, your father is channeling through your poems, you can be sure of that, cheers David Christopher Flaherty Date: 11/26/2020 1:02:00 PM I started or got into writting David because my dad wrote my niece Kayleigh a poem. He was in fact the very or my definition of encyclopedic brain and wealth and breadth of knowledge. He would have absolutely loved nothing more than engaging with the likes of you. Maybe i am getting to fulfill his wish on his behalf Christopher Flaherty Date: 11/26/2020 12:33:00 PM The single greatest compliment or comment i could ever wish to pay someone would be. To say i read something and all i could take away from it afterwards was unbiased fact to make my own decision based upon but never knew which side the said author came down upon So congratulations on a job well done Christopher Flaherty Date: 11/26/2020 12:28:00 PM David maybe i think that's why i read repect and admire your poems so much. Because you do play devils advocate and try to engage and educate rather than indoctrinate. The greatest life lesson that is never taught . David Kavanagh Date: 11/26/2020 12:22:00 PM I have to keep an open mind and look at all situations and possibilities from every angle I like so much to play the devils advocate, too much blindness through political correctness, it’s abused by sad troublemakers who have nothing to offer cheers David
