I love this poem. I can totally relate to the, "bad habit." I have a tendency to stare as well, but my subject of choice are couples. I wonder how they met, how long they have been together, etc. Couples that are sitting to dinner at a table but both in their own worlds on their cell phones make me a little sad. I love the style of poems that rhyme the last words and that tell a story and that make you feel. That was this for me. I enjoyed your poem very much.

    Thank you so much for reading my poem. I agree about how disconnected people are today. When I met my husband there were no cell phones(I just showed how old I am)oops! Anyway, thanks for this nice review. :)

I truly enjoyed your poem because I do the same thing. People fascinate me, too, and I can't stop staring at them. You describe those that intrigue you most. I especially relate to your saying you write stories about some. So do I. Thanks for sharing and keep on staring. Rod

I love this and feel the same. I enjoy observing people and am often amazed at the courage that some display in going against the norm-they are my favorites as I see them as brave and courageous. Good writing.

I have a similar habit, but I try not to stare. I look discreetly over my glass I'm drinking, or pretend I'm on my phone reading, (especially if I want to snap a picture to show my friend someone's quirkiness)but I love to make up stories about them in my head. I actually think I'm more observant that way because when I ask my husband what he thought or did he see what I had seen, he usually says no. Good luck in the contest!

I enjoyed this because it not only is well written in rhyme and story. It shows that you have curiosity and interest in people, they also stir your imagination.
Good luck in the contest and thank you for the read.

    Thank you for reading my poem. A lot of my poetry comes from observing people, and it's even spurned me to help out the homeless. Thanks again. :)
