The Incredibly Boring Life of Peter Black. (Book) - 2/19/2001 8:37:58 AM
I came across this book by accident and picked it up on a whim. I don't usually have a lot of hope for first books, but this book had all the classic elements of a great book. A hero who doesn't know it, a tangled web plot that moves fast and makes sense, a bad guy with personality, and a few sexy woman who are classy not sleeze. Oh yeah, and a great sense of humor.

I love limericks and have posted many here at AD. I agree. They do not have to be "vulgar" or necessarily funny. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

There once was a writer of verse
Whose verses were often quite terse
He was taciturn
And when it was his turn
He buried his nose in his purse
The Love Limerick (Poetry) - 2/15/2009 1:08:34 PM
Nicely done. I feel the love already. Thank you for sharing, DL.

Coffee (Poetry) - 6/10/2008 6:26:09 PM
From one caffeine addict to another, this is really a good fix, loved the way you presented the day of a coffee addict with such clarity that I can almost see the person going through an ordinary coffee filled day...good work!

Softly song-like. A glorious talent you have that is pure. I see growth in your art.

I like the way you repeated the chorus.
Excellent.

Uncertain Times (Poetry) - 8/17/2006 2:12:36 PM
A Confession? Don't really think this as one.
I didn't write this as an confession of anything! That is really not the point.
The poem is more about longing of the soul for stability, safety and happiness. In the times that we live in many have such feelings and not because they themselves have sinned but that the world, for the lack of the better word, is not a nice place most of the time.
I say it is inspirational because in the end we need to keep on living and not give up.
Grab hold to what YOU believe in, it may be Jesus, nature, Buddha or whatever it is just hold on to it with passion! That will bring you pass the uncertain times.
Uncertain Times (Poetry) - 8/17/2006 12:00:30 PM
That stronghold you are seeking is not anything on this planet. It is the Eternal Christ.
This was a great confession ... it takes courage to write like this!

I Can’t Stand Rhymes! (Poetry) - 8/9/2006 11:07:45 PM
I understand about why you feel the way you do but depending on the poem I believe a rhyme can set a tone or a mood sometimes that A free verse could not do, so like most things I prefer free verse ...except......... Sandi

Poetry drips like from a faucet. We can not control where the water spatters. Only that we are the faucet.
Poetry Without A Reason (Poetry) - 8/9/2006 5:00:33 PM
It is kinda sad, when someone feels bad about rhyme.
Sensible or nonsensical. It's like they've lost that part of their being that likes fun, spontaneity, and take themselves far too seriously..
Ning nang nong
what a noisey place to belong... SM
Poetry Without A Reason (Poetry) - 8/9/2006 4:29:53 PM
Nicely said and done...who has to have a reason???
Poetry Without A Reason (Poetry) - 8/9/2006 2:03:10 PM
Susan, that was exactly the point. Thanks for your "compliment" :)
Andy, I am a fun person! I just like stiring the pot a bit!
====================================
This in no way should be taken as a put down to those who
can create beautifully rhythmiclly rhyming poetry.
It’s just that I can’t stand a rhyme for the sake of itself.
===================================
Poetry Without A Reason (Poetry) - 8/9/2006 1:52:22 PM
I'm so confused!! This is a perfect example of a rhyming verse that simply does not flow or make sense! (I cannot believe that this review is a compliment! It sure doesn't sound like it! (: )
Susan
I Can’t Stand Rhymes! (Poetry) - 8/9/2006 1:50:08 PM
I know the feeling. I suck at rhyming! But I do enjoy the occasional beauty that someone might write....aargh! Those two last words rhymed!

Marvellous analogy.

Well no they don't, and even though I love writing them, mostly for humour, this is wonderful.

There Was A Man... (Poetry) - 7/18/2006 2:27:04 PM
I like the format of this, at first seeming long, but then balanced by the repeated verses, unique, like it.
I Lost My Cheese Somewhere... (Poetry) - 7/11/2006 6:39:19 PM
There are many seasons in life that rankle and cause distress! Rest assured that everyone goes through the same thing!
I suggest an Indian Kukri, to slash the juggler of the perpetrator!

As a piano player, I strongly agree! Ahhh music, and passion.

Been there, done that! Love this poem. Thank you for putting this into words. :)
My Own Private Music (Poetry) - 3/21/2002 2:26:45 PM
Good poem, but from a woman's point of view, playing the piano is more spiritual...
My Own Private Music (Poetry) - 3/21/2002 1:15:26 PM
Beautiful poem and I agree! Music and love goes and in hand... Thanks!

Great stuff.

I agree with this....I also got a good laugh.
Sometimes it does...sometimes it don't.
Thanks for sharing.
Sharon;)
thanks for your kind words on my work.
I Can’t Stand Rhymes! (Poetry) - 2/27/2002 9:48:51 AM
as someone who writes both ways, i appreciate this. if the rhyme happens, fine but when you write nonsense to make it rhyme, it loses an awful lot
I Can’t Stand Rhymes! (Poetry) - 2/27/2002 9:11:53 AM
I got a laugh out of this. ;) Sometimes, I feel like a rhyme, sometimes I don't. Janet

The mind is there to think and it is with creation that we question.. Guess we won't know till we go...
