The Poemhunter Convention Makes Me Nervous! Comments

This is great Mary. I thought that the internet would create a culture of introspection and Isolation; no more so than real life I guess. This is such a wonderful write and I would certainly love to see and hear you reciting it.

uncomfortable with 'those who have seen my soul naked.' I really like that one, Mary, and have thought how much of ourselves we DO EXPOSE here...Scarlett

Mary this is a brilliant write, I enjoyed every word, and I know just what you mean, it could be a horrendous experience, or a lovely pleasurable meeting, but it's the finding out, isn't it. Shudder! ! ! ! ! ! ! Love and hugs Ernestine XXX

Mary, you are so loved by this group as a whole...that you have no need for trepidation of any kind. Go, if this really happens, and God bless. Raynette

I hate to find myself in a mirror, let alone meet anyone.

The YOU Mary has already stepped out.For YOU an I may not see eachother were we to stand face to face.Our hearts have shown the real us and the hurt and pain has been exposed and in this loses its power over us.You are wonderful, we are not blind for even when we close our eyes we can still see your brilliance shining through. If you think i'm joking or just trying to flatter you, think again. Your strength is a great lesson to us all. We have all suffered in one way or another, I think that this is the battle that will go on, not stopping with us.But one day in the future, the battle shall be won and all the love that you talk about shall unite.Take care you special person, Love Duncan

There is something special about knowing each other's minds without the physicality entering into the relationships. What convention? Must have missed something at Forum. This poem is heartfelt and touching at its core, Mary!
