Comment from Susan Louise Gabriel
I really like this! I think you've expressed the reasons that most of us write - to get out feelings out, and the best way we've found is on a page where it can become visible without shouting.
Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Susan. I'm glad you like this. I does seem a lot of feel the same way about writing. I appreciate you comments.

Comment from humpwhistle
Nicely put, Beth. I'm all in concerning writing as a cathartic safety valve. Flying off the cuff is kneejerk, whereas, writing is 'considered'. Words on a page are far more thoughtful, than words spewed without the filter of a disciplined mind.
Best of luck.
Peace, Lee

Thank you Lee. Your comments are right one and I enjoyed reading them. Writing could get you in trouble but not nearly as much as flying off the handle and doing something crazy.
I really appreciate the six stars.

What a wonderful offering that defines our lives as authors oh so well!! Love it, Lady Beth! ;) Thanx for sharing and best of luck in the contest! ;) Yvette
keep my feeling --> [did you perhaps mean 'feelings'...?] Just a suggestion, feel free to ignore! :) ;)
feeling festering --> feelings fest'ring [again, suggestion on the word 'feelings' but the word festering is one of those that some syllable counters give it 3 while a few give it 2... putting the apostrophe avoids any consternation or break in your rhythm. :) ;)]

Thank you Yvette. I'm so glad you like this poem. A lot of people have said they write for the same reason. I did fix the s on feelings earlier but I probably should do what you suggest with festering. It is more three syllables. Thanks again.

Bravo, my friend. Your poem definitely touched a chord with me this morning. Maybe it's because of my writing of late, but I associate with each and every word. I believe we travel similar roads yet different too. Thank you for sharing and I wish you luck in the contest. Smiles to you!

Very nice! Also so very true at times it's difficult to express the emotions that are revealed through the words on paper. Great job and best of luck to you in the contest.
