A little fantasy never hurts. It reminds me of an old song by Tex Ritter \"Hillbilly Heaven\" It was fun to read but I would feel a bit out of place there.

Oh that very last line. Never forget that, among all the greats, what shines through is originality... there\'s only one person with your originality.

Well, we shall be pouring our hearts together
Maybe debating the world how wrong it has gone today?
Or was it worst from the start
Quite an engaging poetry dear Rocky…

Dear Rocky, your poem has lifted me up and made me smile from ear to ear. I love what each of these poets could be doing, and it\'s comforting to think of them this way, they seem so very human. Thank you for the bright spot in my week.

We all grasp inspiration from somewhere. Probably being down maybe draw us out a bit more than being high. I don\'t think I\'ve ever sat down and wrote something, that just doesn\'t happen. I have been in company plenty of times when something\'s came into my head, and excused myself quickly to at least get some words down.

God or being belief
The faith or our dreams
Anything that keeps our hope alive
Resurrects our fallen self
So beautifully expressed dear Rocky….that’s what makes us and that’s what makes us keep going….

A great piece of advice Rocky and not just for poets but also for everyone who can use other outlets to release tension. I try to improve my awful drawings, practise guitar chords, clean up the house thoroughly.......

I love this! It\'s perfect to \"swallow the sun\" each day and make sure you write. I\'m glad you do! The \"handheld God\" metaphor is so fitting. Great job, Rocky!!!

Good writing abs interesting too ! I have expressed myself and my sadness .. in my poetry sometimes and I think it can feel healing sometimes . If only we could carry that sun whenever we are sad .. maybe light is always there but we just have to transform the darkness into the light .. somehow or even if just a little bit . Darkness can definitely affect our sense of light

My Dear Rocky,
Another great writing from your well inked pen. All I can say (from experience) is pursue whatever dream you have that will make/keep you happy. Don’t be discouraged. Remember that we’re one out of 7.9 million people who want to be on that stage to be ‘noticed and shine’. There’s so much you can do in the arts. Focus and you’ll find your niche. NEVER GIVE UP!😉

MY SILENT PROTEST (A Rant Against My Homophobic Father)
Christina8 said:
Rocky this brought me to tears. I just can\'t imagine! You being gay has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them. By that I mean it\'s their issue. The bible tells us to love and that\'s just what I do...hell, even my best friend is gay. no one is going to hell over this ok? But your father somehow views you being gay as a failure on his part, well thats his f*cking problem, not yours. So glad you are getting out of there at 18! I tell my kids I love them no matter what they do and what they don\'t do.....they think we\'re amazing parents but the truth is we mess up like everybody. You are loved, Rocky Lagou!! Don\'t you forget it!!

A clever write! Some people do dream impossible (or highly improbable) dreams, while others seem to have no real ambition at all. Middle ground is surely best, I would say. I fell short of many of my dreams, but still ended up on middle ground, I would say. Whatever you do, I wish you every success! I certainly enjoyed the poem!

That was a windy ride…
But the bus driver itself was unsure what he was driving cause he couldn’t see the journey ahead…cause dearest Rocky was climbing the Everest
And sure enough it’s not normal to do that
Though I am sure we two are unsure what would happen next
But fate, higher power or Almighty in heaven
Whichever you may believe have stars in our lives shining with the most beautiful sparking lights

Go forth Rocky, your talent is massive. Writing, singing, acting, playing instruments - these are difficult to achieve by so many people. You will get your lucky break ahead so keep on keeping on.

Dreams have sometimes to take second place depending on changes in circumstance etc. but that Stop sign is merely telling there is plenty ahead and to rest in the moment until dreams become clearer - at least that\'s how it appears to me dear Rocky.\" Head high and stride forward to beckon tomorrow \" is a mantra that helps me along.

I remember similar feelings as a young man. As i grew older the choices i made brought their own consequences and opportunities and so rewards. They didn\'t arrive in a rush, life is a long process and many changes will affect you, some profoundly, though some profound world events may just pass you by.
There\'s so much luck involved. Like the lucky kid who hated his piano lessons but found he liked to dance to music and a guitarist he met knew a drummer and they made some good feeling stuff and luckily someone who knew someone heard them and before he knew it he was Liberace LOL just kiddin. But luck plays a big part. A boss ( a salesman ) once told me \"the harder you try, the luckier you get\" and that appealed to me, it worked for him and it worked for me. I could write loads on this but.....
