I\'m not an advocate for absolute selfishness every time, but an altruistic situation this isn\'t.

Funeral
Doggerel Dave said:
Very descriptive.
Yes - funerals are for the living, It\'s just garbage disposal for the dead - who aren\'t there anyway.
You don\'t pop in often enough, MEM. If you must utilise prompts, then find more of them, please.

Pleased you fell into serenity rather than falling into the water. This is a lovely tranquil poem, but I was worried about the crocs. Great imagery. You took me there MEM.

That\'s great M.E.M
if only there was a way to start a theme based section here on MPS, it would be very interesting to see the poems that would be written.
Great job

For some reason I found the odd stanzas (starting with the first) said more to me than the evens.
The first, for example, has much relevance in many (if not all) situations.

Sandy Thoughts
Doggerel Dave said:
Thank you - yes it did.
Rewarding read. You certainly made good use of that prompt. The sand - yes I know it\'s discomfort myself, and I\'ll try to confine those images to my own experience rather than dwell too long on yours...................
A special person if you can control your thoughts - please keep that skill in good working order.

Ghost Writer
SirStellar said:
First off, outstanding job on your poem! To be honest, I didn\'t see it as creepy, but maybe that\'s because of how loving and reflective the ghost was towards Mackenzie. I enjoyed the prompt itself and how effectively you conveyed it through your work, as it kind of hit home for me. The way the ghost went into the very specific details, especially of love and the stated relationships, added a layer of meaning since it\'s trying to help Mackenzie discover what she herself already knew. This, thus, was similar to therapy for her, I feel like. One last thought that I have is that the prompt you worked with stated \"a\" ghost, but what about a poem in which it was \"your\" future ghost writing to the present you? I think that\'d produce an engaging (or at least very thought-provoking) work! Still, great job on your poem, and I loved it!

--Franz Kafka (1883-1924)

Keys can lock someone in or out. The smallest key can open the biggest door. There are keys to success, keys to freedom⊠The biggest door is useless without a lock or a bolt. That lock is useless without a key or its equivalent.
