A day at School (Short Story) - 9/12/2017 5:11:54 AM
That was extraordinary day that you can now pass on to your children as a remembrance of the way schooling was in your day. I can't imagine a single student having so much responsibility at such a young age.
I had "stage fright in school." Although I was okay in choral groups and other activities, I was frightened of speaking or singing alone in front of others for fear of not doing well. It wasn't until I took two college speaking courses that I overcame my fear of speaking to groups.

The Boss is The Class (Article) - 10/9/2017 5:56:38 AM
It's interesting how you end your discussion with money. The longer I live the more I realize that it isn't money that makes us successful. It is success that can be defined many more ways than simply how much one has made or gathered in wealth.
In my early years I had several bosses, some who were not paid very well but were very good leaders and mentors to both emulate and learn from. They propelled me to high office because I always complimented their work and supported them to the hilt.
I'm not sure about India, but in the 1980s in the United States under the leadership of Ronald Reagan, the emphasis shifted from accomplishment (the great innovations of the 20th century) to moneymaking and Machiavelli became required reading. Accountants took over from engineers with the big 8 accounting firms taking over industrial consulting changing it from being innovation based to profit-making based.
I began to get bosses who are only interested in the bottom line and how much they could use/abuse employees to line their pockets. My upward movement stopped, leveled off, and then, declined. But I persevered to retirement. Meanwhile, several of those bosses, like cocaine addicts, feverishly built empires without my assistance, and quickly crashed and burned. They taught their employees nothing but what not to do.
So, if you say that we should always talk nice about our bosses, then I would say that you are advocating that we all become "yes-men/women. The kind of coworker I despise.

well said
The Fabulous Japan (Article) - 8/11/2016 7:43:28 AM
You are indeed fortunate to be able to travel many places. And, I assume you were the Japanese in English. That makes travel for those of us from the United States very easy because most places in the world have bilingual citizens who speak both their language and English very well.
Unlike you, I find that tourists that "read up on a country" prior to going there may miss out on the mystery. But, you seem to have, like me rely more on the people and serendipity see the things that the local people want you to see and not something that a formal tour would take you so as to "protect you" from local dangers to your religion, politics, or pocketbook while they fleece you. ;-)
You make Japan seem like a wonderful place to visit.

Heart does not heal (Poetry) - 9/26/2018 7:07:46 PM

Cure (Poetry) - 8/3/2018 11:34:53 AM
Great poem. I can feel the emotion and pain.
Cure (Poetry) - 8/1/2018 7:52:52 AM
While this is written as a love poem, all of the pain and misery expressed leads me to believe that there is something very wrong with this relationship. A love should be kind and sharing, wonderful. The reason for loving is to be happy. This poem is filled with angst and anxiety that tells me that one or both parties in it are not really loving.
Ron
Cure (Poetry) - 7/31/2018 12:34:45 PM

Love Me (Poetry) - 7/4/2018 9:38:18 AM
Your poem would be beautiful except for the intonation that you are somehow "in charge" by aggression. Not good.

The nacreous heart (Poetry) - 6/26/2018 11:56:45 PM
I had to look up nacreous. It means iridescent, opalescent. So, you have a pure heart that's opalescent and lonely. And I'm lost. I tried.
The nacreous heart (Poetry) - 6/20/2018 7:48:43 PM
Loneliness is a state of mind, some people feel that even in the company of a crowd of people. The richest person in life is one who holds a dream. When you have dreams you have love.

Thank you John for the honest words. Ronald you always have to say something negative but it is perfectly allright.
Dame = the official title of a female member of the Order of the British Empire, equivalent to that of a knight. A woman with authority.
And you don’t love an ordinary girl, don’t you?

Ron
Inscape (Poetry) - 4/9/2018 6:03:30 AM
Clearly you very often "speak the language of love" and clearly, from your poems, you are a "lover by nature". Perhaps that is why you endeavor to express your feelings of love in as many ways possible.

Hearts burn when love is hot,

Loop of Shadows (Poetry) - 3/5/2018 1:58:54 AM
Well ! The loop of shadows , it describes many things in our lives but especially the loops of those shadows created by desire, experiences and the romantic unbalance perhaps.
Ronald : the cooch dance is " a sinuous, quasi-Oriental dance performed by a woman and characterized chiefly by suggestive gyrating and shaking of the body."
Here in the poem , the cooch dance by the breeze is the thrill that it carries , beautiful isn't it?
Cheers
Rana
Loop of Shadows (Poetry) - 3/4/2018 7:54:09 AM
This poem seems to follow the shadowy essence of many dreams. But I am wondering what a "coach dance" really is…?
Ron
Loop of Shadows (Poetry) - 3/3/2018 8:26:39 AM
A moving poem of shadowy hope. This verse sums it up: The frantic yet romantic library of thoughts." Ah, how the mind is ever at work, sometimes at cross-purposes with the heart. Thus, the loop of shadows of which you write.
The Living Past (Poetry) - 2/15/2018 6:09:13 PM
We remember little things of our lost loved ones. A touch. A whisper. They soothe us in our darkest hours.
The Living Past (Poetry) - 2/9/2018 8:01:26 AM
The end words on each stanza faithfully describe what an early love that many men like you and I had can do to our psyche. Often throughout our lives we may imagine what it seemed to be, what it could have been like, or even what it was like, but not to be.
Ron
The Living Past (Poetry) - 2/9/2018 5:21:32 AM

I can feel the words and music of your love. It's palpable.
The Dearest Dream (Poetry) - 1/10/2018 7:20:48 AM
Lovely! You are capturing the raptures of love. I like the unusual words you have chosen for some of the rhymes.
The Dearest Dream (Poetry) - 1/9/2018 1:03:31 PM
There is a melding between music and love. But it can be sad as well. George Harrison's lilting While My Guitar Gently Weeps, is a good example as it pulls on our heartstrings and fairly weeps.
Ron
The Dearest Dream (Poetry) - 1/9/2018 8:16:08 AM
Love the image of "fingering my guitar / fabricating lyrics to the extent of desires." Now that's fine poetry. Also love the line "the thunder that you make by passion / I feel every emotion / I hear every noise." These words say it all and much more.
PS: The photo fits the mood perfectly.

You've got a romantic heart, which is the heart of the true poet. Perhaps that is why some of your poem evoke deep emotional feelings in the reader, feelings that we have all felt at one time or another.

Enjoyed this wrote, and enjoy your journey.
Finding Myself (Poetry) - 11/21/2017 9:35:05 PM
A soulful exploration of what it might mean to seek and possibly find oneself. Heart-felt and moving.

heart warming

This is the stuff that dreams are made of. These are the thoughts that exotic poems are made of.

I love the picture, and words fit perfectly.
The Girl in the Snow (Poetry) - 11/13/2017 8:48:01 AM
You portrayed a elusive snow queen that could just be a formation of blizzard turned to bliss.

Excellent image-making . . .

finely crafted and much enjoyed
The Girl in the Snow (Poetry) - 11/13/2017 1:24:01 AM
Your words are always breathtaking. Thank you for sharing the beauty, and spreading it sweet as honey, Rana
The Girl in the Snow (Poetry) - 11/12/2017 10:42:24 PM
When I saw the title, I thought "I am ready for this." The use of repetition throughout works very well in this poem, creating a sense of evocation that echoes in the mind.

Your words in this brief poem grab us with their power of expression. I love a bit of nonsense turned into powerful thoughts.
Ron
Dreams Drenched in Fear (Poetry) - 11/2/2017 6:17:12 AM
I've had those dreams drenched in fear. They are never pleasant to wake up from, and they tend to linger far to long after you're awake.
Dreams Drenched in Fear (Poetry) - 11/1/2017 10:42:55 PM
A universal idea in this poem that is well handled. Yes, some of our dreams are indeed "drenched in fear" while others' lead us to have "reasons to be proud". You don't waste words in this one, everything subtle, understated, to the point. Well done. PS: I would take the "s" off repairs in the second line: you don't need it and it spoils the otherwise tight rhyme-scheme.

well penned
Turn me on (Poetry) - 10/9/2017 6:18:24 PM
I can see she does turn you on.
Turn me on (Poetry) - 10/9/2017 9:56:06 AM
Come on! Give me what you've got. You won't be disappointed in me in the least is what you have promised your lady-love. How can she resist?
Turn me on (Poetry) - 10/9/2017 6:51:48 AM
With phrases like, "plug-and-play," you have elevated lovemaking to a poetic high. Something one would read to a reluctant lover to get her/him ready to go.

Turn me on (Poetry) - 10/8/2017 8:41:23 PM
A lusty, lustful play of words and emotions that strike their own unique note. An interesting poem, partly for what it doesn't say as for what it does say.
Green Silk (Poetry) - 10/4/2017 4:31:37 AM
green is the calming color of life
Green Silk (Poetry) - 10/2/2017 8:01:16 PM
"Where the dreams crawl without claim" seems to capture the secret of this poem. I like the way you tie it up at the end.
Green Silk (Poetry) - 10/2/2017 12:41:14 PM
Interesting idea. A continuous stream of green gaze to color our days.
Unleash My Passion (Poetry) - 10/2/2017 11:14:41 AM
Thanks Susanne, Thanks Eilidh
Thanks John .. It is pure love ,lust has other definitions
Thanks Jerry Bolton ... I'm glad you liked it
Thanks Ronald...
Everything I write is imaginary ,I had been alone almost all my life, I have no idea what a real woman may react to the poetry I write, the words and the passion. I hope one day my ears would listen "Love"
Cheers !

Unleash My Passion (Poetry) - 9/28/2017 8:45:19 AM
Quite an entreaty to a woman with, "………lips more fleshy than orchids and lilies." I think you can pry open her reluctance and allow you to, "unleash my passion…" with lines like that."
Ron
Unleash My Passion (Poetry) - 9/28/2017 7:34:43 AM
WoW! I love that last line, Rana.
Unleash My Passion (Poetry) - 9/28/2017 3:52:50 AM
This seems to be a testament to passion and love (lust?) if there ever was one. Very intense and yes, colorful in its imagery.

Grip of her lips... wild and sensual
A passionate one
In Love (Poetry) - 9/27/2017 8:17:25 PM

Enjoyed Reading it. Eagerness to go wild, I like that.

Underneath My Skin (Poetry) - 9/25/2017 11:17:06 AM
It's a crime to be loyal in the modern world
The word "love" seemingly lost its definition
these two lines speak volumes to me, it seems like you have an old soul, an old fashioned heart and a loving disposition that is lost on the modern world. Too bad I say, hold yourself dear despite them and place those fences a few feet apart, allowing only those who deserve the closeness. Take care and thank you for sharing your precious heart so thoroughly, It takes a brave man to do that, xo
Underneath My Skin (Poetry) - 9/25/2017 11:01:22 AM
This poem is much different than your other poetry, darker. More in line with my morbid thoughts. I could hear Hozier's song in the background, "Take me to Church." We all live with our pain, hidden deep beneath our skins.
Underneath My Skin (Poetry) - 9/25/2017 7:26:48 AM
I sense that there is a sense of being singled out for being different or not fitting in--discriminated against.
Ron
Underneath My Skin (Poetry) - 9/25/2017 6:12:32 AM
Not the destiny John but fate sometimes makes you think the way I though in this poem.
Only the lucky ones see all the colors of life
Cheers!
Rana M
Underneath My Skin (Poetry) - 9/25/2017 5:57:02 AM
There is the recognition of pain in this poem as well as profound perception. Our destiny is not something as "such life I ever wished for." John

Thank you Ronald for the kind words, Thank you John, Thank you mystic rose I am flattered and Thank you Susanne for understanding my soul.

So sincere and honest in its appraisal of what love really means. As usual, you write lovely poetry that sings when one reads it.
Ron
Love does Exist (Poetry) - 9/20/2017 8:22:15 PM
You capture here both the moment and the feeling. The reader feels that your love will never die.
Love does Exist (Poetry) - 9/20/2017 2:55:55 PM
One should never apologize for loving someone. Your poetry is of high calibre, and most endearing, love xo
Love does Exist (Poetry) - 9/20/2017 11:09:34 AM
I like the melody in this one.
In Love (Poetry) - 9/20/2017 9:15:27 AM
This poem reminds me of
The music in my heart i bore
Long after it was heard no more
In Love (Poetry) - 9/20/2017 7:34:26 AM

Love's emotion is elusive to capture; you have made a fine attempt in this poetic rendition to fill love's treasure chest with the appropriate words.
In Love (Poetry) - 9/19/2017 11:41:43 AM
You keep the love alive with your words.
