Why ,oh why ,did you  dim her lovely light?

why did you snuff her words

and push them out of sight?

Why did you hide her love?

(you know that wasnt right).

All she ever wanted was

to share her heart with you...

is money all you care about  ?

My heart breaks if you do.

she could not help it that she died,

  (at least her words could live  )               0

does poetry count for naught ...

when there's no coins to give ?

This is heartbreaking and seems unfair to me. It lowers my esteem of AD. I guess it is always all about money. I extend my empathy to you, Kay. Love and best wishes,

Regis

Kay, I am so sorry to learn of your loss. It is so unfair that her poems have been pulled. One of the reasons we write is so that we leave something behind. I am so very sorry.

Sorry about your mother's poetry, have you emailed the owners of this site?

Always,

I UNDERSTAND YOUR FEELINGS COMPLETELY REGARDING YOUR MOTHER'S POEMS BEING REMOVED. I HOPE YOU POSTING THIS SHARING MAKES A DIFFERENCE AND, ALSO, YOUR CALLS AND COMMUNICATION WITH THEM WILL HAVE THEM TO AT LEAST EMAIL YOU HER POEMS, SO THAT YOU CAN POST THEM ALONG WITH YOURS ON THIS DEN. HANG IN THERE, MEANWHILE, KEEP SEARCHING ON LINE - YOU JUST MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIND A FEW. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Ron, I have seen many old poets seem to disappear & that same thing may happen to me this year but life is what it is...-e-

Since I've been here on AD, I have read many poets who disappeared. Fortunately, someone like you, have merely taking a hiatus for any number of reasons and now are back. But, I have a sneaking suspicion that many poets here, many of them aging and ailing, left the site involuntarily like your mother.

Their poetry lives on here and in other places on the web receiving dwindling readership with time. I still send emails to some who I believe will never be able to answer me again. It is the way of life that we must accept. Perhaps the hardest when it is someone close like our mothers and fathers.

Ron
