Have a wonderful Valentine's Day.
I'm not sure you celebrate, but I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.
Oh good that you took my comments in stride. A red pen can hurt people's feelings when it's part of their creativity. Thank you wispy.
I will certainly comment on your blog! I truly didn't think you were being a harsh critic-- I thought you were being a good teacher. I hope I didn't seem like I was offended! I wasn't. I will admit that I was a little surprised the poem seemed self-pitying when I intended it to be self-inspiring, but again, I realize I probably need to work on the tone -- the whole poem could do with a face-lift, really. I truly understand what you meant about the cliché metaphor. I'm here for the feedback, the input, the criticism -- I embrace it, and trust me, as a college student I know how much good a red pen can do to improve a paper. Thank you very much for reading and critiquing, and I hope you continue to do so!
I'm never sure if I should post poems on the boards any more. I would like your thoughts on my poem that I entered in the Autumn Poetry contest. I posted it in as a blog, here: http://www.online-literature.com/forums/blog.php?b=9173. You can zap me with criticism as hard as I did to you (I feel guilty by the way, but such criticism is good for your development) the other week.
Hey I'm trying to get people to vote for the Autumn Poetry Contest. Such a sparse turnout. Please see if you can peruse the poems and vote for one. http://www.online-literature.com/for...ad.php?t=47225
Funny story in my blog. Think you might get a kick out of it. http://www.online-literature.com/forums/blog.php?b=8365.
Welcome to lit net Wisp. I hope to see more of your poetry.
