' When my heart gives out, do not resuscitate it with tears and rave reviews of how good I was. Tell me the truth while I am still alive'----- I'm telling YOU the truth that I like YOUR sentences!!!!!!! ' Words are of no use to a dead POET' VERY NICE!!!!!!!!!! Liana Margiva

There's truth in there somewhere; deep--mind's eye view. Emotional, Questionable, is this how deep & wide the poet (I'm just getting the hang of it! :)))))) It is good but the sparkle in your eyes, I don't see the gloom.
Take care,
Sharon

I like this...
(Let my last breath be drawn from a well of ink.
That way, I can make my final mark on the
Page. Everyone will know a Poet lived here.)

This is so moving. It touches writers and non-writers
who want something that say, yes, I was here.
This is a splendid write.
