Comparing slicked back hair to a pencil eraser is so evocative and accurate. Love this whole poem and definitely takes me back to church camp and first loves!

Hello Rocky,I can totally relate to this one,I have always been a ponderer and it is so easy to be cynical if we\'re not mindful that there is alot of goodness beneath or on top of our shoulders too.

Crumpling is part of the process. Happens to the best of us. I’ve had to learn to relish crumpling with a flourish. Thanks for sharing.

Dear Rocky, Hair is surely a symbolism of pride. No wonder great seers on the path of philosophy get their head tonsured to come out the first physical pride element. Hair on the top of the head, and first thing to get the pride out our head. Wonderful metaphor and intricately expressed. Thanks !!

Dear Rocky, the visualization in this poem is breathtaking. As I read each line I can feel those tresses wrap around me, comforting and loving. Her beauty encompasses all of us. And to those who can\'t or refuse to see it, it is sadly their loss. A beautiful tribute my friend, \"Happy Pride Month\".

Dear Rocky, I just had to read this aloud in a rush of words, because that\'s the way it seemed to me, a flood of emotion at the moment of encounter, pouring out in every little detail. And then that moment of acceptance for something, someone unattainable. The bittersweet side of love, I felt it all. A wonderful write my friend.

A passion for the words around here, I see. Thank you for sharing. I liked the concept of a lighter, or a match as a form of romance. I\'ve always enjoyed a cigarette with a romantic partner.

And - your notice - I\'ve encountered many defeats ya know - in me singing lessons. It\'s a farce. I plod on, just about to have lesson 5,643. I can\'t see the tutor\'s earplugs. He says \'You\'re doing fine\', while laughing up his sleeve, as I pay him the lesson fee each time. Doh!

You know my comment from a few days ago - church\'s responses to this can range from \'hellfire and damnation\' to \'come on in, all are welcome\'. I tend towards the latter view, you may be glad to know.

An Amateur\'s Solution to a Broken Heart
orchidee said:
I just thought of \'Brevity is the soul of wit\' from Shakespeare\'s \'Hamlet\'.
I don\'t know much Shakespeare and I say \'I don\'t always agree with that Shakey guy, ya know!\' lol.
I don\'t like his \'The world\'s a stage, and all of us are players/actors\' or summat like that. I don\'t agree.
But \'Hamlet\' has several fairly well-known witty sayings in it. See a Reference Book, as I did, if not reading the whole play.

What struck me most about this is surprise that you have anything to do with pastors and churches in view of your previous remarks. Their dual standards will not have a positive effect on your self seteem.

I adore this short poem. A very good title as well! This is a funny and thoughtful write. After 20 years of marriage myself, I\'m glad I never had to deal with heartache. Well, do high school boyfriends count? LOL I saw a very wise reply that you wrote---\"because if you don\'t look for love, it will eventually come to you\'---wise beyond your years!!!!

dusk arising said:
LOL. I promise you that sitting down is no solution.
Falling in love and out of love and becoming heartbroken are all a part of living. Experiencing them is a sure sign that you are living life well. Without them life would be... well \'different\' and far from as rewarding. And those experiences don\'t half teach you stuff about life which no book will ever teach you.
Let it happen.
