Occasionally I check the STATS file on Authorsden.com to get a feel for reader activity. It’s been a while and I was surprised by some of the rankings in the poetry section. There are other poems that I count as my personal favorites, but each of these top five evokes a special warmth as well.

Antecedent Chemistry is fine, Looking at life’s improbabilities, It explores mystery of bloodline, How we are each implausibilities. http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewPoetry.asp?AuthorID=4195&id=73527 Eetwidomaloh (He Who Greets With Fire) excites, Linking to National Geographic movie that many saw, How lions and hyenas compete for food with fights, On African veldt inter-species competition is raw. http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewpoetry.asp?AuthorID=4195&id=81687 A Theory of Everything puts scientific theory to rhyme, Examines forces that form and shape our world, Organizes their properties for analysis all at one time, Sift, categorize to one with all dimensions unfurled. http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewpoetry.asp?AuthorID=4195&id=72455 A Navajo Prayer Song elevates and inspires, A chant to hold as our heart’s forward guide, To begin our day, reflect beauty’s soft fires, Embrace Earth’s oneness as path to abide. http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewpoetry.asp?AuthorID=4195&id=63518 Global Warming got the most attention of all, Over ten thousand hits registered to date, Concerned if humans will advance or fall, Heed wise counsel or succumb to fate. http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewPoetry.asp?AuthorID=4195&id=147662 © 2008 R.

Hello, dearest friend! Until a moment ago, this page was coming up with a weird format, it took me a while to figure out where the commentary box had gone, LOL! Anyway, now it's back to normal, and here's this amazing poetic list of your Top Hits, in its full glory! It is curious, indeed, how not always our own favourites are the ones receiving more attention from our readers... and, checking out what the latter are, in our stats, is a great exercise - which I practise myself, quite often - that brings about some equally great surprises! It was good to reread these fabulous creations of your pen - well, digital "pen", LOL! - brilliantly flown from the source of your intellect and poetic talent!
Always and forever your fan, with lots and lots of love and a great big {{{{{{{hug}}}}}}}}}
