A fine write L. A bit of rubbish now...
Oohh, time elusive
Is it now, not yet, or some time past?
Oh I careth not
As long as there\'s time for sherry! heehee.

Hi Louis... thank you for your poem. There is a nice positivity here despite the bitter/sweet times. A lovely poem.

Wise Santita. Without the bitter, the sweet is not so sweet. One night without sleep makes the other night great. And the next day, even greater. Life is so good if we know how to appreciate the good and wonder with the bad. Amazing. You got an awesome writing here. Bitter or sweet it is all good.

Very true Louis. Tasting both is what life is about and going forward is the only way to go, never give up.

\"Though barely surviving the bitter,
The deepest pain accompanied the sweet.\"
My favorite lines.
Beautiful writing.

Part of life\'s roller coaster- they say the bitter makes us stronger - sometimes that\'s hard to see. Love your poem.

Great poem, Louis, I really like (not rike) it!
When the \'bitter\' happens, you are already down on the ground, fighting. When the \'sweet\' happens, it lifts you up to lofty heights.
And then, if you fall from these lofty heights, it hurts a lot more than the ground fighting did.

Life is as you say in this interesting write Louis - - we can only try to work within the framework of willingness to fit into the present scheme of things. A most engaging read.

The one is compliment to the other - if you can survive it. Good job Louis.

THE ENDING - A BEDTIME STORY
George C. Biester said:

Love it. I find the idea of Iminent death to be comforting, and blissful. Perfect note to sleep on.

malubotelho said:

For me I\'m still such a very normal person. But I recognize that if you think you are mad is because you are not. The really, really mad person don\'t know they are mad. So we are only on the early stage. We still need to work hard. I love your words and got them for me. Brilliant write.

I love this new definition about \"Genius\".
A \"mad\" writing.

FredPeyer said:

Love your poem, Louis!
And I think you are right, we all must be at least a little bit mad spending untold hours writing and reading poems. Then patting each other on the back for a job well done! But you know what? I like being mad this way! :-)

Not sure about madness but I\'m called eccentric - and I quite like it but I don\'t know why ...!

Thin line between genius and madness. I see it crossed a lot. Thanks for sharing.

The fine line between genius and madness? Now, I reckon you had me in mind for one, when writing this. heehee. Good write L.

THE PRICE
FredPeyer said:

Socrates supposedly said: I know that I don\'t know anything. There is no proof though in Plato that he actually said it. Maybe we should say it differently: The more I understand, the more I want to know.
Love your poem, Louis!

This is very true. I stop to understand things long ago so now I only accept it. Whatever it is, it is.
