so true Karen I also feel passionately that no one should ever be restricted from posting their thoughts, how many poems you post shouldn't be dictated to by anyone else on the site except admin so my advice write on. I never wrote poetry until my hubby had cancer surgery in 2013 (in fact i hated poetry at school it was dull and boring!)but starting writing has been so cathartic during some difficult years and we should be free to express ourselves as often as we want to,WRITE ON! hugs Jan xx

Thank you Jan! I write everyday, (even at work) I think of ideas and I write them down before I lose the thought! I am glad that you started writing - not under your circumstances but to express yourself during troubled times.

Oh Yes, it is great when the reader can feel the words. You do a great job at that. Have a fun day..........
