funny and yet serious. a very pleasant read indeed.
I believe we can all feel defensive of our writes (our babies). It's only natural I guess.
I love the layout.

Thank you , most appreciative of your comments , take care.
I understand what you mean... the useless online "battles" we sometimes find ourselves stuck in when there are, you know, ACTUAL problems in the world. haha but great poem, it was fun to read (with something all of us can learn from).

Thank you missed this comment apologies for the belated thanks. Take care!
I appreciate that people have their opinions but I think sometimes they should keep it to themselves lol .I absolutely understand what you are saying:)

we certainly have sensitive souls on here, I can't think that i have ever been offended by a review but i am always mindful of peoples feelings when commenting. poems are our creations - it is natural i suppose to feel defensive of them. interesting write x
very nice thoughts, even ironical, but true...The expression of the soldier is so good, as everyone could be one. no matter where and how, Who is actually a true soldier? is it the one who takes - willingly or not -innocent lives? Or the one who is fighting for his children, or the one who is fighting just "online"? so many questions...But surely there should be a fight. No one who just look and stay can be called "soldier".
Moon, you very kindly read my poem and gave me a good reveiw, as I said poetry is not my usual style and I don't feel qualified to express an opinion on modern poetic prose, but I did enjoy this neat little piece and read it quite a few times. Keep writing.
Will

I agree with the critique of the fighting.
I enjoy when I get feedback about my mistakes... I grow and learn from others observations.
I find it astounding when people get upset when you give an honest review. Some of my favorite writers need a kick in the pants from time to time and I know I do.
I also find it a little off-putting when "great authors" get fussy about having to read poetry with errors. Hey, not everyone is a professional author... and not everyone even has a spell checker.
Offer a helping hand with sincerity and humility and accept any help offered for what it is worth.
Any social interaction will produce some friction. It goes with the territory. So, lube up the chip on your shoulder and jump in!
A worthy write Moon.
