This posting will be my 1000th poem posted to my site. For me it is a wonderful landmark for though I never claimed to be a poet, I guess looking back I now can see I have become one along this exciting journey. What made it truly remarkable journey though are all the friends and fellow poets as well as readers who shared the trip either the whole way or parts of the way with me. I thank all of you who have reveiwed, offered tips, criizism,advice and encouragement along the way. A wise man once said "No man can stand alone..." I am not sure who it was but that is not as important as what it says, which to me is everything. Thank you one and all.
hugs

One Thousand Poems

By: Fee

 

A thousand times I’ve opened my heart

Sharing thoughts hidden deep inside

A thousand poems I’ve offered up

Tales of romance, love and even pride

Of wars of man, and ladies tan

I laughed and more than once I’ve cried

 

Inspired by love, by lust, my heartache

By fellow writers who I have met

By news, and views and the world about

Wrote so many titles I easily forget

Yet my muse still wakes me now and then

I think my desk he must sublet

 

I’ve been itemized and criticized

Been loved and hated for my words

I’ve met amateurs and professors

The workingman and even Lords

Been relegated and delegated

And more than once crossed swords

 

Now I choose my words more carefully

Yet I still refuse to pull my punch

I can only write the integrity of truth

And for some that’s a metaphor’s lunch

So just because I’ve shared a thousand posts

There are still more words left to crunch…

1000!!

"I’ve been itemized and criticized
Been loved and hated for my words
I’ve met amateurs and professors
The workingman and even Lords
Been relegated and delegated
And more than once crossed swords"

FANTASTIC!! You know I am fond of swords though, well my dreams are :) I do not like to cross a swords, I know I would get hurt & kicked by that huge black horse that missed me me by the fence ;)

Great Post!

You've managed to be the keeper of those crossroads and to be crative enough to report the comings and goings with the talent of a romantic and mariner. Your heart is as huge as it can get...until I think it must be full. You must share your secret to a full heart.
Blessings and love,
Susan

Dear Fee,
1,000 poems is a remarkable achievement and I'm happy to know that you now recognize your talent. Here's an answer to "No Man Stands Alone" --- John Donne said in one of his sermons, "No man is an island. No man can stand alone."
Hugs,

Congrats, Fee. I'm roughly 110 poems shy of having written 1,000 poems in the last 5 years (not all posted online) and about 2 months shy of my own little AD milestone of 500,000 hits, since I joined the Den in 2003. (Of those, nearly 450,000 hits have come since July of 2005). Two of my poems just crossed 9,000 hits a piece and one of those, "Good Morning," was not written until June of last year. All of these little milestones are delightful, indeed.

Best wishes for continued writing and success,
Jill
