Negative Comment…

An “uncertain” author passed on a negative comment to me of late,

I find that, in their point of view maybe I did not investigate,

The story was told, to the best of my knowledge, to titillate,

To make one fearful, as it was a ghost “story”, not a fact…

I have to say, I appreciate all comments/reviews, either good or bad,

Neither of which can ever, even if I think about it, make me sad,

As even negative comments have their place & may help me, even a tad,

I refuse, and mean no offense to my other reviewers, to remove that,

Because even a bad review can do nothing but help, as if it already had…

So to that “uncertain” author, that passed judgment on me so quickly,

I am not, although I have been told I am, more than quite sickly,

Usually making up poems with a humorous theme, usually a scream,

I greatly appreciate those that have come to my aid, with a ream,

Of the butt of the other “author” that gave me that negative comment, so mean…
