... and will write a pretty poem
full of kittens, full of sunshine ...


Poem Artwork


Tired of writing pretty when I
don't feel pretty.  Feel ugliness,
instead.  Back still hurting; the knees

along for the ride on tracks of
pain.  Hell getting old.  As moody
as clouds, outside.  Where is beauty

when you -- no.  No pity party.
The sun is out there, somewhere.  Just
hidden from view, now.  Will find it,

the silver lining behind the
darkness, hovering -- even if
it kills me, I'll find the blessings

and will write a pretty poem
full of kittens, full of sunshine,
even if I have to fake it!!!!

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (11/19)

Hey, come on over to the nearest mall, sit down on a spot close to where Santa is greeting the kids...if you aren't smiling before you leave...real problems. I love being Santa.

Your honesty shines through in a true picture of how you feel. Hopes the sun comes out for you, and I hope you're feeling well for Thanksgiving. God bless.

In French, there is a saying: "Après la pluie, le beau temps." Your verses remind me of this. Love and best wishes to you, Karla,

Don't hold back, I don't. What I feel I write . . . I understand, however, how you feel, nobody likes a whiner, but damnit, there are time when whining is necessary . . .

I could write about how faking it changes it into reality, but I won't cause you're not so peppy right now. Woops, I guess I did write about it. lol

Hope you get to feeling better, quickly.
God bless you. Kathy

A pretty poem is the mirror reflection of a ugly one with a glass of love in between.

Karla, you write, even when you are feeling at your worst. I wish I could take the pain away; but I'm not God. I will pray though; prayer can't hurt! :) I love the part about the kittens; AWWWWW! ADORable! Very well penned; brava!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :D
