On your home/profile page it shows how many poems by other people you bother to read or comment upon. The figure is really low which is a shame.
The spirit of this site is in reading one anothers work and commenting upon it, i encourage you to join in.
The last lines of your piece today are particularly great. They temp me to ask, but do you listen?

It seems so many cur to heal. I guess the rest of us use different ways. Great story. It hit home.

I lost a friend today
SLR said:
A lot of repressed pain here. I\'ve also lost close friends. I\'m sorry for your loss. You have to let yourself grieve sooner rather than later. If you wait, the most unexpected things can bring that pain to the surface. Good flow, good post.

WELCOME GOODMAN ~ Thanks for your first poem ! I can empathise ~ I\'m a Scientist and I often loose sleep pondering unanswerable problems and chasing elusive CLARITY !
YES ~ It does become tiresome ~ lying awake for hours ~ hoping to recapture ~ That moment of CLARITY ! However it was only by day-dreaming of snakes ~ on a London Bus ~ that Kekule perceived BENZENE (C6H6) to be a regular planer hexagon of carbon atoms each with a carbon attached ! James Watson (23 !) wrestled in the night hours and perceived DNA to be a perfect complementary Double Helix ~ the most significant biochemical structure in the whole Universe. Rosy Franklin ~ who had done the essential X-ray crystallography ~ saw the model and said \"It is too beautiful not to be correct\". We have to \"Learn to Dream before we can discover the TRUTH\" Note that all MOLECULAR & CRYSTAL structures must obey the Laws of Mathematics to be correct ! Maths is KING ~ Physics is QUEEN ~ Chemistry a PRINCE and BIOLOGY a Princess ~ AMEN Thanks for caring & sharing ~ Yours BRIAN (UK) Please check my POEM on BEARS and my FUSION on FISH (you have to click on DEVELOPING to see it and add a POEM on FISH !) ~ Thanks B !
