The Mermaid And The Sailor Comments

hey...thanks for spending all your years on my page...

You mention in some of your posts that you have been attacked for your religion...not by me. My problem is, and always has been, your disturbing messages about my age, as if it were some disease. I love my language as I am sure you love yours, and therefore, hate to see it used in a way that would never pass the strict rules set by publishers. You remain at the top, only because you have managed your poems by asking for reads and placing top scores on undeserving poetry. I believe none of your poems to be good enough to be in the top 500. I believe you think yourself to be better than you really are...brought on my false comment from members who want a return read. I will not bother you again...but, are you really the nice girl you profess to be?

wonderful piece it's like a journey to the poetess mind where everything is clearly shown i like your poem and i gave you 10

Hi TAMARA - You invite us into you MIND and SOUL - this sets the scene for me - this is what your poetry is all about. It is POESIE LIBRE it is POESIE DE COEUR you have your own style you are a free spirit so I won't attempt to sanitize your poem or press it into a classical poetic form - it is perfect as it is written. Every word is essential for me (and other FREE SPIRITS) to understand your message to see your heart in your poem. You say you are LONELY seeking release in a metaphor as a Beautiful Lady Knight (I love that) as a Fairy (georgeous) and as a Mermaid (as an aquaphile - I find that very evocative) . As the Sailor in your poem - I am sailing to the Island of your mind - to the ship of your heart - to claim my mermaid. This poem epitomises the journey we are all on - the search we make from the cradle to the grave - for love - for that perfection we will only discover in PARADISE. However our earthly sojourn and search is awesome and your poetry opens our souls and minds to ephemeral possibilities and makes the sojourn so so much worthwhile. You are a true poet Tamara and those who oppose you and score you low - do so out of jealousy and spite - we will find them and destroy with the pen which is mightier than the sword. The moving hand doth write - and having writ moves on Nor all their piety and wit can move it back to cancel half a line Nor all their JEERS blot out a WORD of it! Don't look at the scores Tamara (weak men always like to score!) look at the comments - they are awesome. The impotent low scorers are too cowardly to pen a comment - two poorly endowed to show their 'pen' in public too whimpish to stand up and be revealed for what they are. The scores are meaningless the comments say you are the best POET in Poemhunter. NUMBERS are meaningless ciphres - WORDS speak the truth. We love your poetry - we love you! Every Blessing - JOHN

thanks dear Ronald for your English lessons..i will take in consideration some of what your said but i will not stop my sweet beautiful images in my poetry...as that is the best thing in it..my vesrest need some one who able to taste the deep complicated meaning and feelings...of course not any one can understand it..it needs some dreamy souls and minds who can saw wow...and by the way my dear..i do not follow any style..this is my created new style which will be called tamara's style..you know i have a musical ear which can easily taste the sweet things and i think this is the most sweet one i wrote..truly...i just love it..will take others true opinion and will see if your opinion based on true facts or on personal taste and sure i have to read yours and i will give my very frank opinion...thanks alot for your care and your so long comment...
