Comments received on poems by Heather T
foolish heart
Louis Gibbs said:
What a sad commentary on a disturbed individual who took me in as well, though I did wonder about his unending pity party. I became aware of the accusations, but withheld judgment until confirmation like this. Condolences to all the compassionate ladies who were the victims of his illness. Shame on the man who deceived us all for so long! Thank you so much, Heather, for this brave poem.

Dam it! My gut told me this from day one!
But I said I was doing it again, being judgemental seeing my stepfather in everyone and thing.
Thank you for helping with this lesson of trusting that feeling, and trying to not go back to that place where I trust no one\'s words but I\'m still a bit in shock too, as I shed tears for this pain and then helped in some way.
So many emotions at once I don\'t know where to start! Most that it sets a bad example for people to know who to trust.
Thank you so much for your open heart felt words.
They mean alot!

Heather,
I admire your strength, courage, and honesty!
I know you did not want to bring all this into the open, but I am glad you did.
The purpose of this site is for writers to share their work, not for old guys to harass women or try to pick up girls. It is wrong, may even border on the criminal and gives us other old guys a bad name!
Heather, I for one am with you and with anybody else (heard of a few) on this site who have been harassed. Enough is enough. No more harassment, no more lies, no more inappropriate language to ladies and girls, no more cowboys.

Bravo. The imagery in this piece is amazing. I particularly liked “uttering gooseflesh”. You paint such vivid pictures with words. Nice work, as always. Thanks for sharing.

Heather, thank you for a very moving tribute to these mothers. Losing a child, no matter how old, is the absolute worst that can happen to a parent, and I just pray that I will be spared and go before them.

So sad that your community has dwindled with such unwelcome grief dear Heather - this tribute captures the awful demand of saying goodbye to those nearest and dearest with apt Biblical references woven into the lines. The verse haunts the heart and what a tragic bell tolls with that final word chosen - -- gone.

I think this is a great poetic subject, Heather, as is dance generally.
The poet entering the veils (sort of) and peeking through etc
Great write. Good choice.

I have no idea where YOU get all these ideas! Marvelous writing.
\'Stoned seduction\', was there anything else involved beside music?
Love this poem.

Are you talking about me Heather?
Great poem, fits me to a T. Left my first home for my second home and my second home for my third home. But now I am home. Sorry, while I agree with everything else you so eloquently wrote, cannot agree with the last stanza.
I do get homesick sometimes, primarily for comfort food I had as a kid and cannot get here, but otherwise I am happy where I am now.

One can never go back \'home\', can they, as your poem so well portrays to me. \"home isn\'t home anymore\" says it all. Thanks for sharing this nostalgic poem, Heather!
