Dreams On Fire Comments

I think this is outstanding, I wouldn't change a thing, be yourself, it seems everybody is missing the whole point of this poem, always doing for others at the sacrifice of your own expense, very good poem

Magnificent, Sheeya. This reminds me that one's dream may be another's nightmare.

Well, I assume you receive 'paychecks', unless YOUR work is done as a volunteer! I'm a little 'torn' between giving 4 OR 5 stars. Hmm? I give FIVE. bri : )

stanza 4: I 'LOVE' this stanza's last 2 lines. And I say you should: 1 - STOP using a comma after EACH LINE! 2 - Be more careful with the placement of any comma you use. : ) It may not be 'easy' for YOU. {or is Bri doing it 'wrong'? }

DID I TYPE line 12 or line 16 before THIS comment? ? I wanted to type 'line 12'. RE the same line [ 12 ].....I reread it & NOW think you 'should' SIMPLY delete the word 'is'.

Line 16: 'aid' vs 'aide', ....both are 'good words', but differ some from each other. Which one do YOU feel better with in your poem?

I SAY: Sheeya, I think you SHOULD rework/revise/edit line 12! ! You do NOT 'HAVE TO' use 'smothers'. You don't have to have a rhyme! ! HAVE TO

I just read an online article warning of burnout, , , , or 'WORSE'.....for surgeons. I assume such warnings apply [[ probably to a lesser extent ]] to non-surgeon-doctors & to nurses.

Having only read stanzas 1 & 2, I thought the poem would be about your 'love life'/'social life'. I no longer think that AFTER I've read the Poet's Notes & some comments! !

(I think you once, months ago, implied that you are a physician, nurse, or a student in a medical field.) ARE you? Hmm?

In your welcomed Poet's Notes, I wonder: : 'Did you intentionally misspell 'diseases' as 'dieseases'? ? ? Do you work around dying people? (cont.)

Going in life on 'tippy toes' [[ figuratively I think ]] refers to 'using caution' in the way you interact [[ or DON'T ]] with others in your life.

line 2: 'but alas, life's...' I would use 'but, alas, life's...' Otherwise, I 'love: stanza # 1.

In new format of PH you need to vote for self so that your poems gets noticed, I hate but can't undo.

No doubt, life of a doctor is hectic and busy. Such thoughts of leaving everything and running away will appear and disappear, so is the life and so is it's journey.

We all are servent of fate and our own choices. Good Luck, you are serving mankind for good.
