LOL, well, of course, I am out of the proverbial sixes! This is such a well-written poem that those who should pay attention won't get it, and those who get it, already have it. An exceptional job! Terry.

Well, Debi, sometimes one must be humiliated in order to reach humanity status. Take my ex-boyfriend for example. Well after we broke up, he had the audacity to try and get me to sleep with him again. Well, it was time to knock him off his narcissistic pedestal and tell him the truth about himself... something I never did when we were together, maybe I should have.
The next time he said hello, there was no mention of sex. lol
It's always a boost to get a 6 for your work, nice words for your effort. I'd rather have a lot of people telling me I need a little work on something, than a handful of fake people telling me how great I am, so I'll tell them how wonderful they are!
A well stated poem, Debi. I liked it very much, very much indeed!
Susan :)

    Oh yes Susan, I do know what you mean. To get a six and a few suggestions is a prime review for me. And I am not saying that because I did that to you. But some people are insulted. And I try to always be kind. To know that they took the time to read and make the effort to help you , is priceless.
    It's not like I want fours or less, who does? But some comments make me wonder if we were even talking about the same poem. I may be overly emotional, that is just me. But phony, never. And I see the same in you.
    Thank you for this wonderful review and for your story. As long as it isn't a lie, I love hearing what people think of me and my poetry.
    You gave your X the biggest gift, you could have ever given him.
    I'm proud of you!! Yay Susan, you go girl. Lol!!!
    Thanks again my sweet friend.

    I never lie... not anymore. I realized a long time ago that it's just not worth it. If you don't like whatever it is I'm talking about... oh well! LOL
    I suppose that this is why these days, I'm so "Open mouth, insert leg to thigh" hahaha...
    Nah... I've been like that forever, Debi! I never really had the aptitude for knowing what not to say. ;)
    (sometimes I still don't)

    Have a great night!
    Susan :)

You have asked some very good questions here, and ones we should all consider. We need to take a good look at our attitudes periodically and make sure we are not lifting ourselves above others. Well done, Debi

Thank you for this beautiful reminder not to be so full of yourself. God will often put something in our paths to remind us to humble. He's great about that. Maybe that's why He put this poem on your heart, NOT for you but for a reminder to those who read.

    Thanks Barb! I am actually kinda hoping that it gives a few newbies who have come on board lately, some food for thought. I have seen so many great writers get ones and two's by people who won't take some kind advice and instead come here and completely tear people apart. I miss this place when it was so peaceful . I know when I first joined I watched for a half year before I wrote my first poem. And yet I had been writing my whole life. I can understand innocence where so many didn't know better than watched for a while and caught on. Some now are judging on whether it talks to them or not. But there is a big difference between innocence and arrogance and I hope people don't sit back and put up with. The rest of us don't treat each other that way and I tried so. Hard to. Help them to understand and they. Wouldn't listen.. sorry but my keyboard is going crazy. On me. I'm.glad. I wasn''t. Trying to write now.. i better. Go. Try. To reboot.. thank. You fo.r always. Being. So. Kind..

    God forgive me then Barb.
    I just wrote a not so nice review to Tom Blanks because he clumped everyone together with his know it all theory. And people like you and Helen, Roy, I can go on and on. Do not deserve this arrogance,
    This place was not like this when I first started here. All I have ever tried to do is get people to show that some of are like lifelines for each other. I know that the guilty ones have now left and not saying that there aren't some that cheat but he was being so so Thomas about itl lol...
    my keyboard is going crazy and not taking my commands so thanks Barb for listening to my little rant. It is only because i love so many of you here and I think God will forgive me for having one day of a little anger here and there. You mean the world to me and just wanted you to hear it again, my very sweet friend.

I don't read a lot of poetry, mainly because I don't know the first thing about it. But every now and then I run through for a change of pace and I always appreciate the time that I spend. This time, I'm about to post the last two chapters to my latest story and needed a little inspiration since it's way outside my comfort zone. LOL. Thanks for sharing. It's always a pleasure.

I`m thinking you might be pen pals with Roy, a top poet on this site. The messages embraced by the both of your writings ring very and God-fearing. Just a compliment.
