So few people

Are reading my poems

And commenting on them

That I wonder, is my poetry that bad.

 

I guess I will try

Some other poetry

Sites and see if I do any better.

Thanks to the few who do comment.

Facebook, Twitter, InstaGram and other smartphone and smart pad activities have taken other readers' and authors' time. Also, the realization that poetry books don't sell. This site used to be free and had a poetry contest. Those of us with lifetime memberships have been dwindling over the years through infirmity and death. So, you are right about readers and comments.

I don't think you'll find any more activity at other sites.

George... check your stats .. you might be quite surprised at the number of hits you get.

But whatever you do... don't let the mind get idle.

Welcome! The poems in this beautifully bound book are a result of over twenty years of observations. Observations of the world around us and on the telecommunications network. All of the hate, love, heroism, disasters, and those who help. Beautif
