Panagiota Romios Poet Rhyme

The Comment Witholders

The Comment Witholders

Read others poetry but will not say boo?
Perhaps their gang here at The Soup,
  may not approve of you?
But the poets with big hearts in
  comments names you will find,
Their torches there to encourage you
  all of the time.
And yes, some even Soupmail you.

If you write anything controversial,
  be prepared to be ignored!
It doesn't matter, not at all, get over 
   it once and for all.
Your earliest commenters simply 
   just jumped ship, that's all!
Poet-friend gone overboard?
I look at my very first poems~and so
I know who you are.

This question is quite essential, why am
  I here?
Be prepared for jealousy ~ its in your
  rear view mirror, see?
It's hot green eyes glowing.
Let those green orbs be the rocket fuel
  that keeps you going.
You do not need a poll to know if your
   poem is good.
You have to trust your inner man or
   woman  to tell you that.

Find a poem with no comment today,
And give someone a bright soul smile.
How long does it take to type one
   word?
Can you just try,please! 
Just once in a while?

I am not talking about POTD.
Of those the comments fly in..
I mean those who rarely get comments.
Bless them, please do, with your
Loving, poetic pen!

Honestly J.T. April 4, 2019 at 5:49 AM Cool poem -JT Panagiota Romios April 4, 2019 at 10:02 AM Hello, I love your name! I already posted to one of your poems. The soup is not here only to showcase Poetry. I will not read poetry anymore of ANY non- responders. They ignore so many. Sorry but I prefer ....interaction. Panagiota. Be well,,,

Jennifer Proxenos March 27, 2019 at 1:56 PM Hi Panagiota, I love your poem and well said and well written - a very true heartfelt poem which needs to be seen by all. We are there for each other and want to be acknowledged as do others when they submit their poems. Poetry hugs Panagiota, Jenny. Panagiota Romios March 27, 2019 at 2:41 PM Good afternoon, Jenny! Glad the poem makes sense! Acknowledgment is a two way street as you said. It's a real gift to another poet when you or I comment. Poetry is not all about us. We are a family nationwide. Poetry hugs, Panagiota

Panagiota Romios March 26, 2019 at 7:58 PM Hey Dear Heart, I see us a kind of a fellowship...I think you know what I mean. Fellowships work in harmony. The new man or woman may fear jumping in. I cannot tell you hoe much you and each commentor have greatly changed my life for the better. Well, beyond poetry. Bless you. Panagiota.
