Comments received on poems by Poetic Dan



The seesaw of life
SLR said:

I think we all, at one time or another, reevaluate who we are. It helps us to become better people. To help others. This brings self confidence, self esteem. If we don\'t reevaluate ourselves than we have become complacent. You have written a beautiful, profound piece today. You have helped everyone who reads it. We can\'t expect to love ourselves overnight, but you should be proud of yourself. Thank you for a wonderful post.

That\'s probably the most profound piece of yours i have ever read. There is great wisdom in there and many of us (self included) should take heed of the message you beautifully encapsulate.
Without hesitation this has to go into my favourites.

Dan,
Yes, be patient! Take all the time needed and without a doubt the seeds you have planted will flower...when they are ready! All in good time, my friend!
All good things require lots of love and devotion to come to fruition! You have plenty of that ā€œLove and Devotionā€ within you!
Just be patient and youā€™ll eventually enjoy the rewards you so well deserve!

Yesterday is gone...forget it!

Today will be a good day!
...tomorrow even better!

Love the pic...
ā€œAccept yourself as you areā€...
YOU ARE GREAT AS YOU ARE!

Thank you all for reminding me
Goldfinch60 said:

Very good write, to write your feelings onto paper is so fulfilling and so helpful, then to put them on site like this is wonderful as many may feel the same and understand exactly how you/we feel.

Dan,

Brilliant write! I enjoyed your rhyme of the day!

ā€œBalance and harmony is lovingā€...

Your words look very familiar! šŸ˜‰

You were actually inspired?
Imagine that!šŸ˜Š

Dan,
Glad to see your writing again!
Your words are very touching and so dear! A beautiful message to behold!
Youā€™re so right...
ā€œNothing is guaranteed to us not even how or if we formā€

Thereā€™s no wrong or right, everything is life.ā€
Thank you for having shared this extraordinary write!

How funny.... they should sell those \"buns\" over here in the Northeast USA right now........ way too cold for this time of year and they might make people laugh....

No blame just the learning game
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Dan,
This a beautiful write!
Youā€™re spot on with...
ā€œThe power is inside us to chooseā€ and
ā€œWe live, learn and figure this outā€!
We do learn from our children!
I loved reading this poem! It reminded me of my two children growing up and me being their mother/referee! I think I was balanced! They turned out ok! Yours will too! Thatā€™ a great pic of your ā€œsproutsā€!šŸ˜Š

Moments gone by
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Very relatable, Dan!
Iā€™ve shed many tears
while listening to...
ā€œyou are my sunshine ā€œ!
It finally peeked...
and now itā€™s finally there!
Continue to keep your own
ā€œlight burning brightā€!
The sunshine will be there
for you!
Your write is a bit sad, but
hopeful! There are many
rays of sunshine waiting
for you!

That happens doesn\'t it - when sometimes emotions just seem to disappear or just get shunted aside because we have other people and things that need us........the last stanza is beautiful....

No end in sight
poetboy123 said:

I read your poem previous to this just now, and I\'d like to start off with my best wishes to you and your child. This poem is a true expression of your self (I\'m inferring you\'re referring to medical costs) and yes, this system, based on profit as the goal, breeds greed. It preys on the helpless, expecting all to simply wait and heed. Experiences like yours need to talked about, the endless exploitation this world is going through can only be ended with a combined effort of the people from the bottom. You will push through this, Dan, I know it. It\'s time to instate politicians led not by the highest \"donator\", but by the will of the people. This reaping of the less fortunate must be brought its end for the sake of everyone.

Accidental Poet said:

More and more I see how the politicians we elected care more about themselves than they do of the people who voted them into office. Its just so insane. Excellent write Dan. Hope you find a positive solution.

LaurašŸŒ» said:

Dan,
I thought your writing
related to your children
in some way, but I did not know how. Now I understand...and I think itā€™s despicable! Iā€™m so sorry for your situation! I wish we could help somehow!

Lorna said:

Everyone seems to be getting this message lately - maybe it\'s spreading! Enough greed..... need less... enjoy more! I\'m with you (assuming I interpreted this correctly that is!)........
