Some people make you able to fly. Nice song choice as always.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks. Lenny makes me miss Prince more. :)

I loved this... even though it's so simple, it spreads such a deep and profound message!
Stuck on you, creates such creative imagery.
Good job and keep up the good work,

Thank you for reading this and reviewing.

A very clever use of imagery. "I'm stuck on you" takes on multiple meanings. Well done.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you. Glad you read this as intended.

[Lorry]

Glad to see you got free from that sticky, nasty glob of goo :)

[Lyn Anderson]

Funny you should say that. You are the first man to read the stuck as negative -- it wasn't intended as so, but was read that way by about half the readers. An interesting social experiment this little poem turned out to be.

[Lorry]

Aren't all reviews :)

Reverse the initials of lenny kravitz, we get you.
Is this a double irony.

[Lyn Anderson]

It is a double irony, and intended to be positive, although about half the people seem to be reading it as a negative depending on their perspective.

[aLittlePain]

The irony.... nice piece darlin. R xo

[Lyn Anderson]

Glad you got that. Apparently my sense of irony is lost on most women.:) but not you.

I still remember those fly strips hanging in my grandma's kitchen. Sometimes love gives us wings and sometimes we're glued to another. Good write, K.L.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you, and yes, that was my initial thought.

Thank you. I do believe this particular piece was interpreted as intended by males and not by females, which is interesting to me. :)

[Einstein Noodle]

that is interesting ...why do you suppose that is?? (please do not feel obliged to reveal secrets of the sisterhood;))

Love shouldn't hold you back, it should be 'the wind beneath' your wings.

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes, I agree, however I guess at the time I was trying to go for a bit of clever that didn't quite fly. :)

[Lydia Shutter]

Feeling stuck is never a good thing....you have the wings. Only you can use them. Good one. Lydi**

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you for popping in.
