Mitchell, thank you for your lovely review. I try my best to be positive. There is just to much negative in this world for me to add to it,
Comment from Shawlyn
Hi patcelaw,
What a brilliant piece. The words are very meaningful and ones I agree with totally. The big plus visually, is that you have managed to shape the words into a triangle for impact. Well done and regards, Shawlyn

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Etheree poem. There are truly no reason for anyone to be full of themselves. We are all one race and we all make mistakes. No one can be above the other.

Thanks for your nice review, Sandra. I think we all know of at least as couple of people who are full of themselves.

Comment from mrsmajor
I really enjoyed this poem, Pat, your poem followed the Etheree well, syllable count was right spot on...and most of all the essence of this piece is without question something we see in people so often..."Don't take yourself so seriously that you cannot see those who are in pain"....You certainly said a mouthful, and its so true.
I do believe one must also be lonely if you can't see those around you...how often do I thank God for those around me, if only to offer a kind word...thank so much, Pat, for sharing there is meaning in this poem once you read every word...Blessings,
Hugs,
Victoria

Such a great message, Patricia! Thanks so much for putting it so well. It is often hard to let go of ourselves and our own priorities but it's so worth it to be part of each other's lives.

Comment from Joan E.
I came back from my Theater Arts class, where the teacher played a documentary of Spaulding Gray, who was a famous monologist. I found him totally full of himself and not poetic. (I think you might want to eliminate the first "So" in line nine, since I think it contains 10 syllables.) Thank you for the reminder to not be so self-absorbed in this Etheree. Cheers- Joan

Thanks for the review. Joan. I counted and counted that line ans still I only count 9 syllables. Blessings for a good weekend. Patricia
-
Joan, I stand corrected on the syllable count and have changed the line.

I am glad I could help, since I recently wrote a poem in this form and had forgotten the name Etheree. Smiles- Joan

You're right, I think of Sheldon on th tv show Big Bang Theory, he is full of himself, and thinks everyone else is less important than him. It is a terrible way to live. Your poem is easy to relate to, flows smoothly, and is just a joy to read.

This is a message I think we should all take to heart. I'm not familiar with the etheree poem format, but I do like the poem, not to mention the cute cartoon picture. Good one!
