Big Bear Comments

What fine descriptions and what a beautiful picture you conjur up. Wishing you a happy healthy new year, Sylvia Thank you for your comments about my poem A living thing.

Juan, this wonderful poem makes me wish to be there right now! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Peace.

Hi Juan: Thanks for the comments on 'Up in the Big Bear Mountains'. I wrote this poem when I was 21 years old and stationed at Coronado, Calif. near San Diego. Our minds do seem to think in the same manner, as this poem you wrote is so similar to mine. I really think that rhyming makes the poem and you do it well. I must give you a 10 for a great write. Your Friend, Lynn

This took me back to my life in the far north of Ontario. Those frost- bitten toes and fingers seem like a badge of fond memories now. I wouldn't give up one especially when I realize how it served to give me my resilience for later life. Adeline
