Jackson, I promised myself I would come back and read some more of your poetry... And so here I am... I like all of it I must say... I will have to come back later, though... I'm much too tired to leave you any good comments/criticism right now ha.... nice read, though. later, Brit

Jackson, this poem is worth every 10 it's gotten. I'll admit the ending isn't quite as brilliant as the beginning and the millde portions, but because of this verse: ' tougher still than those age old questions: what is love? or how much wood could a woodchuck chuck…? ' This poem is honestly beyond what most people consider poetry...In fact I'd say it's more like divinely inspired composition.. Always, Amberlee

OK, the title was so interesting I HAD to read it....and I'm glad I did! What a great poem Jackson. Very beautiful way to show the sheer appreciation you have for her beauty. I can imagine this won many many brownie points! Great job. Sincerely, Mary

'that they border on open heart surgery'? Could you have found a less romantic way to express that? I guess you could have compared them to a colonoscopy. Now that would have been worse. Sorry, I guess that line just didn't do it for me. j.
