I've no idea what I just read but it's awesome...I really enjoy words woven together in an abstract or surreal manner and this well crafted in such a way I think.

I really like your use of alliteration as well. can I ask you what some of your inspirations are or what writers you like?

    wo wo!! slow down haha

    You're awesomeness is a little overwhelming haha

    I mean, what about famous or semi famous writers? Hunter S. Thompson hits on the nose for me...I also love the beats, Jack Kerouack, Allen Ginsberg, and my favorite maniac of all time, William Buroughs...Just to name a few...How about you? Who really pushes your soul into unexpected directions?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE your GIF illustration!! The peace I feel from the moving water! Your poem is also beautiful. It brought back memories of times on an old tire swing hung from our giant oak tree .

Thank you for sharing, my friend. ..Penny

This perfectly depicts exactly what I believe and hope I've lived. Whatever happens at least we can be what we are and not compromise that. I've never felt old even now. Something about integrity I guess. Well, there's a lot more here than that, but I keyed in on it. :))
One of your very best. Wowser so to speak. Love, mikey

    Hey Mike...-smile-
    I really was ...ah "planning" on heading somewhere else. Something pretty for her. but ...Do you know...I brought her ah back to God. She wanted to marry and I insisted ....she prayed to a shrine of some kind a statue she called Budda....but it was a women. -headtilt-....anyway, my intentions for her from beginning to now...where always honorable....and I rejoice in that knowing....no somethings never age. Appreciate you. love Michael

Hya Micheal. well what to make of your latest wonderful free verse poem, it comes across as a ramble through a boy's history, the growing, coming of age etc, either way I loved the refreshing outlook of your words my dear friend.

I usually 'get' your poems... I guess I need to read your words again, because I am not pulling it all together this time. It leaves me confused...

A very will written poem. I love picture you chose to go with it, It helped to seal the deal with me. I am kind of surprise that you are not rated higher. Of your works that I have seen I think you should be in the top ten at least.

I love that scripture tell us that one must come to God not as a knowledgeable man or woman, but as a child, and I do believe that our childhood innocence still exists within us, my choice is I'd rather look upon a world of hope, well done, Michael, another triumph, blessings, Roy

A very well-written poem. Very deep thoughts and not everybody's taste. You did a great job writing this with great imaginary.
