The Tyre Comments

one of my favourites

Children erased...that's a great phrase.

The general philosophy of this poem is for myself too existential. Although it has its merit.

Being more in tune with the feel of things than science and facts, we knew that the tyre had travelled too fast for its size and mass, and broken through some barrier of speed, . a great poem. tony

Beautiful and thoughtful

You have so beautifully inscribed this poem. Thanks and congratulations for being chosen this poem as the modern poem of the poem of the day.

he tyre itself embedded in a house or lying in a gutter, playing dead....///beautiful writing

You have made the old tyre that we rely on each day look great. Thank you.

I have enjoyed very much your excellent beautiful poem, but too much content and tools and toys for ONE Poem. You are an All Doer, but not so much time for the many things youn wish to do still. You are like my elder bro: A GENIUS. God's Blessings in Abundance, keep on writing more poems for Poem Hunter, more specific and clear.

A basketful of imaginative word play and descriptive delights...born out of a vivid childhood memories, as well as poems and books, Simon loved to study many things included teaching creative writing at the University of Leeds. His poem as mentioned here is a noisy and busy being-doing, but very entertaining and heartwarming. CONGRATULATIONS being selected as The Modern Poem Of The Day. Hurray! A 10 Top score for this poem.

Brimful of imaginative word play and descriptive delights...born out of a vivid childhood experience.
