Bro, I TAUGHT THEM all they know to be great poets. But Valsa has fled to another site after PH's downturn. PH is getting better now. : ) bri

what a wonderful poem - a tribute to fellow poets! 'There must be many writer who are just as poetically endowed, I will seek them out and read their works if time and age allow. What humility! It is said that no poet reads poems written by others! I have read Valsa's poems.She is truly an inspiration!

Lok Kok, this is a beautiful and well deserved ode to two of the best poets on PH. Through simplicity and profundity, you have captured their essence. Valsa has been a great source of inspiration encouragement and support for me. For this, I am in her debt. Akhtar's poetry I am just discovering. And I like what I see. This is my first read of your poetry. I look forward to reading more. Keep up the good work!

i give YOU creative lines from a SIMPLE MIND! do i get NO accolades? ? i see i left a previous comment, a mere six months ago! why am i wasting my VERY VALUABLE time leaving another? ? ? ! and you (i don't think) ever clarified the spelling of Lok/Loke. i admit i sometimes spell it differently than PH does. of course, since you sign notes to me Bro, i don't get to see how you spell your NAME! ! ! ! :) bri

how come both Valsa's and Akhtar's comments 'misspell' loke? or has PH misspelled it, OR has Bro (his nickname when communicating with me) misspelled it? ? i think Bro is vying for the number three position in an Asian trio of fine poets. they are all on my friends list as well. i like it. nice rhyming. i guess this is a 'complimentary' [not 'complementary'] poem. how many know the difference? i do...........now. :) :) bri :) to MyPoemList

Versatility, elegance and style are what makes these gifted poets stand apart. i agree with your finding that their 'eyes can clearly perceive what others find hard to see',
