Rare negativity...

Can't please all the people all the time...


Poem Artwork

Rarely do I see the negative,

No matter the bad, I review in the positive,

I suppose its there, though I don’t like being causative,

To ALL, the positive I do always give…

 

Sometimes though, I can count on one hand,

A negative comes along & it surely does stand out,

And I got to admit it cuts me, but not so much deeply,

Then again it is quite close or just about…

 

To be honest, this place is a positive den,

We like to be nice & not show the negative when,

We all write whether we are good or not quite,

I have liked this place, it is a relatively positive site…

YEW ARNED YERSELF A NEW WORD ... THAT'S PROGRESS!

NOW, WRITE A 500 WORD ESSAY THAT CORRECTLY USES THE WORD AT LEAST 50
TIMES ...

You are so correct. I was in another group when I began and they cut me down several times. Here, I have felt good support even when my poem probably wasn't very good.

Superior intellect plus egoist mindset creates altruistic thoughts of curing all the negative influences surrounding us, and your poem reminds me of how gargantuanly the task is to keep the light burning, as with your poetry re-read again and again, an eternal flame for all to see, positively!

I understand where you are coming from, Ed. I am all for non-censorship, but there are a few things I don't care to read about, and when that happens, I simply refuse to comment. Yesterday was one one of those times.

WOW! You're really being nice. I think that good old Santa, and every dog and cat in your neighborhood, should pee around your place more often!
