Don't start at the beginning and just skip over the middle to the end.
There's so much that gets lost in between and perhaps any comment that you make will probably make sense.
I'm the same old poet with that boyish charm, warm heart and sense of humor that you were so use to reading long ago but maybe just a bit more resolved.
Remember the day I told you anyone could write or be a poet.? Well, I was wrong.
Not everyone can write or be a poet. It takes soul and heart to be one. You took my soul and left my heart somewhere in the middle.
Paul,
This poem has a unique format, and I can't help but agree with your statement about writing. A tender feel, a kind delivery, and a sad but understanding finish. Great write! Hugs~

This is beautifully said Paul
It all matters
Something could get LOST in the translation if not entirely read
or understood!
Another gem to treasure!
I love this!
It speaks to my Heart!
Right on target, Paul -- a perfect bullseye poem. "Not everyone can write or be a poet. It takes soul and heart to be one." Excellent lines! Trying to be a good poet sometimes even breaks the heart and soul, but I truly believe every poet is capable of genius ...
Excellent work, Paul.
Love,
CJ
yeah i no the feeling when you read a comment and it has nuthing to do really with the poem or you can tell sometimes that the paerson maybe read it partly....if i don't/can't/won't read the entire poem I don't comment (that's just me)
thank for putting it out there

Mmmm ... what a twisting spin you put on this one! I really admire what you did here. This one leaves the reader with a very magical "Oops" which is so nicely done. Yes!!!
Oooh, nice write...I love it when I get reviews and I can tell that the person has really read my work and commented about not only the ending or beginning, but can find some hidden something that others did not see in the middle of the write. I agree, most anyone can write poetry, but good poetry comes from the heart and soul of the author. Great write my friend.

What an excellent conclusion to this poem. The part about leaving the heart in the middle, the place that gets overlooked (as you stated at the beginning)is a clever wrap up. Thanks for your review.
Paul,
When I saw the title I thought..hmmmm...that's catchy, but then I started reading it, and realized..it was alot more than that. I think now maybe I should slow down, and enjoy the the gooey center! Grand write Paul!
Wow by this very profound write
filled with a beautiful view of thoughts
And a great flow and stunning message within this write
I believe this qualifies you as a Great poet!!
Love And Peace To You Always..Morning Star

I think a poem is meant to be read by the heart not the brain and you have struck the chord

Paul this really spoke to me profound.You seem to have a muse that goes way deep beneath the surface and speak within the heart and I love poet that can do that..This intruged me~~
Dear Paul,
That comment 'anyone can be a poet' Yes I remember that. Maybe I disagree? I am no poet myself just an occasional thought comes out of the blue. Best wishes and regards Joyce
You are so right... not everyone has the heart and soul of a poet. You, my friend, have got IT. Your heart is right smack dab in the middle where ya left it. (smiles)
Wow, so good to read you again. Yeah ...to really read you.
