I gotta wonder where some of my reviewers have gone...I have a tendency to put alot of stock in certain people only to lose them every now and then...


Poem Artwork

Just to say hello,

Just to feel within mellow,

Just to feel like a fine fellow,

Do they also eat yellow jell-o…?

 

Sometimes from others we hear,

Sometimes angry they get we fear,

Sometimes I think they cry in their beer,

Sometimes I don’t care; I just gives them a passive sneer…

 

Reviewers are fickle,

Not to be confused with being in a pickle,

It’s not like they are getting paid even but a nickel,

Sometimes, of reviews, we only do get a trickle…J

Sometimes people get caught up with drama in life and can't take the time to concentrate on a good review. Sometimes all the crap that goes on prevents people frome thinking straight. Don't take reviews so personally! I, for one, am caught in the middle of some "stuff" and (which may have just been alleviated a few minutes ago) just now have been able to write what I'm thinking....thus, this lengthy review. So, you got a good point across. Readers are steady but reviews, unless the reviewer can express how he or she feels about what was read, are further between.

Love ya!

i'm busted!...you got me....i'm the faithful reader...the 'faithles feckless' commentor...

i must admit that holding a more than full time job, makes it necessary to choose either read alot and sparsley comment or read few and acomment onn all.

i'm reveling inthe past couple of sick days at home that have given me time to do both. this was a wonderful creatively ryhmed pieceof work ed...i remain your faithful reader and perturbed and frustrated that i can't promise more...i love your humor and way you express yourself ...pat

Ed,

I agree with Mr. Ed. Keep writing, maybe reviews will pick up for both of us. Mine's down also.

Blessings,

I seems that some are truly fickle, but if you care, you're in a pickle,,,,,,Hugs

Sorry about that, Ed. Life has been giving me a right kick in the pants just lately and it often takes over so that I don't always know what to say - still read 'em though.

I make the statement on my biography page
"All reviews are most appreciated and not expected."
We do write for us 'tis our creative expression and we
also like to write for the entertainment of others...
If someone is impressed and cares to leave me a review
I am grateful, otherwise just seeing the stats and knowing
it's read means someone read it :) That's good enough for
me...

Hugs

Love and Light
Lily

We have sadly lost many here on A.D. over the last few years. But I think most of us write for ourselves anyway, so I don't mind if I get one review or twenty. Write On.

You're right, Ed. I've been getting the same thing lately. When I check the stats I see something like 49 hits on a piece but only 3 or 4 reviews. Strange, huh?
