you have expressed the poet heart beautifully here, frieda. and you have shown the reader a part of your inner being and challenged them to find you within themselves, clever moves which demonstrate a sharp mind and at the same time a deep and loving soul. i feel there is a little of each of us within each other if we only learn how to reach it. this is a glorious piece of personality, painted into a loving and soulful poem. very nice!

I think we all get a feel for one another through our writes, most poets let it all hang out, it's the passion of poetry. Thanks doll.
This is a beautifully written, unique piece of work. "Do you see me in yourself,
as I see YOU?" A question that we ask ourselves- when we allow others into our heartfelt emotions spilled out on a piece of paper- like a blank canvas exposing our pains & pleasures. You are a talented writer with an incredible imagination. I like the idea of the 'Mad Poet' inside us all. Great write. Thank you for sharing.
'for a poet's heart never wanes
even in the quietest times of all
ready to leap without caution
dive off a cliff,
soar with pen in hand
to trace
all the colors of a poet
...the shades of life'

Thanks for such a lovely review jenn, I'm thrilled you enjoyed this one.
You have really expressed the beauty of a poets heart here, for when people see us they often just look upon the persona we have created. I think I'm lucky enough here to see there is a beautiful person inside you allowing you to be a poet of infinite talent, a wonderful write from a talented poet.

People see in us what we let them see. Some, like you, are brave enough to bare your souls and hope people will love you anyway. I love the fear, hope and raw emotion in this poem.
A poet is all of this Frieda. A human being just like others but sensitive and open to sharing her/his joys, sorrows, triumphs & despair with the world. And in this doing a great service to mankind!
Your thoughts are very appreciated>
If you want to know me, read my poetry, it's all in there. I am a mother of three sons (my finest moments) a sister, a survivor and a little bit crazy. I lost my beloved sister to suicide, so you'll.. more..
