.26) My Poems Have Their Moods Comments

this is a really good poem

I find your interpretation of creative zest to be quite delightful. I share the feelings that you have expressed. Well done.

Max - I had a hard time putting my poems out there for public scrutiny, but I remembered what one of my English Lit. profs said, 'poetry is about the reader, not about the poet.' It's what they get from the read - and it may be different with every reader. I know what I meant, but the idea is to get a reaction from the one who reads the poem. And yes, I don't know where mine come from., either - they start with an incessant word or phrase, and I know it's time to write. Linda

Another work I can relate to! Yes, my poems feel the same way sometimes...shy. :) Be careful of using the word 'that'.

dear max, my poems, they are bit and pieces of everything strewn together

What an interesting idea. I love that line about the baby chicks - it's all warm and cuddly :)
