Such a wonderful, thoughtful Monoku dear Bill. You are one of the most kindest, sweetest and encouraging on here and a fine example of your own poem dear friend. You carry the beacon of light, love and inspiration for the rest to follow. Blessings, gratitude and hugs to you :)

Beware those who think they're being sly with a comment that is not meant to encourage but is judgmental. There's never a reason for one poet to criticize another.

I agree, Lin. Those of you that have been around for years have taught me a lot about some of the poor way to behave on this site. I'm a little naive, because I want to see good in everyone. Some just don't want what I do. :-) Thanks for the comment, my friend. Bill
