Notes About The Poem

She Laughs At Critics

 
I once knew a poet named Broken Wings, And onto comments sweet and nice, she clings; At times, some meanness visits, She just laughs at those critics, Because she wins, and her poetry sings ! _________________________ February 24, 2016 Limerick For the contest, Sensitive Commenting, sponsor, Skat Fifth Place

Broken, I can't believe I'm so late reading every entry on the GLASS COMMUNITY contest list. That's very lame of me, :) I was the one who initiated this contest. But, with the moving and all, I asked my sis to close it for me. I like your placement in this contest. :) Congratulations on your awesome Sensitive community Limerick win. --Love Linda--

Hi Broken Wings, "Because she wins, and her poetry sings". Your work is consistently excellent, and you keep winning contests, so... as Babe Ruth once said, "It ain't braggin' if it's true!" Cheers, Brian

Nice meter, bit self indulgent, but i guess it is about the " sensitivity" of the writer,...well done ...( cue Vaso! )

Lindsay, thanks for visiting, yes if we can turn hurt into laughter it will be much better for us, but at times it sure is hard, its hard to laugh when taking daggers to the heart...

The state of her wings may be "broken" while her poetry regarded as "token" shows a bit of her ass neath her elegant class flowing words that cry to be spoken
