Flying Lemming is from England, and I don't know anyone from England who has no love for cricket.

Great poem, well said, well written. Great can I top that? I doubt it. Adeline
It's about experiencing life's joys and sorrows...and the intellect....to know....the difference!
With the world heading where it is, I don't know whether being ignorant would be less painful or not. Great job!
Sometimes I think some idiots might be running things and those of us that are not idiots need to keep speaking up to them. Loved your poem. Sincerely, Connie Webb
This is only the first I have read of yours but if its an indication of others in your collection. I'll be back many times. I really enjoy reading a writer who knows what he's doing. Your work is wonderful! GW62
It would ratchet down the stress of daily life. Very amusing, FL. Thanks for sharing it. Don
Good poem; my favorite line is 'A dim and dizzy dope'. Great job!
' And even when I'm by myself, I'd never feel alone.' I have always felt like this... Lovely poem, will read all your others... Colin J...

This is a great poem and i wish i could write like this. i love it. its actually made me smile which i haven't done in a long time. in fact i really love this poem i thing its one of my favourites
I don't want to be an idiot, I think I'll stay a PRAT A well written poem which about the intellect which makes to feel the real pain of life and the negating the fact ultimately to be out from the clutches of understanding and realization. Most of the lesson we learn when they become useless.A good read Col Muhammad Khalid Khan
