Michael,
You are your own best friend! No need for small talk...no need to impress anyone! Your talents speak for themselves!

Thank you for another great cartoon! 😂

I can relate to your fine poem’s message!

WHAT AM I ?
Nicholas Browning said:

I can\'t say what you are aside from a seemingly and assuredly talented man with his doubts, as each man has some. I used to ask myself that question quite a bit, gave up after a while though haha. Wonderful little work sir. You indeed have many talents, some we know and some we do not. I\'m sure you\'re worth much more than you believe. Each person is their own worst critic after all.

Very good write Michael, I can understand this a I am much the same. We are back to our \'masks\'. we where different ones on different occasions and the one we wear to parties is the introverted one.

UGLY USE OF THE LANGUAGE

UGLY USE OF THE LANGUAGE
Poetic Dan said:

I\'m trying to understand what you have said, as I\'m more than likely one of them.
My grammar with spelling are atrocious, if not for being able to say the word into my phone I\'d never get to use them.
Written language is not as easy as one may think, I have to read very slow and still look up so many words I don\'t know, then to write a reply takes so much effort to check I got it right and still unless someone points it out I don\'t see what\'s wrong.

I hope I\'m making sense ;)

Personally I don\'t like the ABSTRACT \"Hows things\" ! My answer to that could last a YEAR ! Nudge Nudge Elbow ~ say no more ~ people at Cocktail Receptions (when you are with a Girl |~ you want to impress with your clean living) who dig up (want to forget situations) like \"Didn\'t we share a Cell in the Scrubs\" or \"Weren\'t we both intimate with Busty Belinda at Nottingham in 2003 ?\" etc etc ~ thanks for raising the topic ~ Your BRIAN !

Like I was going to....
I should of done...
Actually I was...

I too (to?) have to (too) grit my teeth sometimes at the use of the English language. It probably comes from the speed that life is lived in these modern times. Emails have a great deal for which to answer as many of them are written in hast with no though of the correct way to express what you wanted to say. There is a Portuguese proverb which says \'If you write a letter in anger walk slowly to the postbox\' This cannot be achieved the emails.

\'Erm\', \'basically\' it\'s a fine write, Michael, \'for this moment in time\'. \'Absolutely\' I say,! - see words in quotation marks to add to list!

IVY
orchidee said:

A fine write and pic Michael. Some used to come in an office window when we opened it. It was invading us, as triffids, but some of it got the chop! Why does she keep growing, this ivy lass?!

IVY
Goldfinch60 said:

Ivy can be so wonderful Michael, but I do wish it would stay out of my garden, I need to go and assault it today as it has taken over the bottom of our garden.

Cracking abstract.

TWO TWO LINERS>
orchidee said:

Cooeee! Yes, the second one reminds me of, said muchly at some churches: \'As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen!\' Nope, not referring to the long sermons - hope not!

Fine writes and pic Michael. No one is alive in soap operas. They\'re all made of wood - in their acting!

Two good ones Michael. I do like the second one better as that could apply to many of us.

Where Have All The Poets Gone?
Goldfinch60 said:

Yes this happens but I will not be moving on, I will still post every day and hopefully the other poets will return.
As you say a classic song written by Pete Seeger in 1955, the song was extended in 1960 to complete the round by Joe Hickerson and Pete Seeger\'s version was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1964.
The Joan Baez version was first sung in German but she did sing it in English as a tribute to Pete Seeger.

Where Have All The Poets Gone?
Christina8 said:

I have been wondering the same thing. I have myself been writing less but I\'ve noticed a complete absence of other poets that used to be regulars. And they are missed! Glad you brought it up!

Where Have All The Poets Gone?
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

THANKS FOR THE WARNING MICHAEL ! This happens on all Poetry Site ~ they reach an apex and then fall away ! I try to welcome & encourage new Poets but there are very few (like you & I) who aim to post every day and post actual POETRY with Rhyme ~ Rhythm ~ Rational and share Classical Forms like Sonnets ~ Villanelles ~ Haiku etc to educate & entertain ! We\'re not wasting our time because something rubs off on everyone and some have asked me to edit drafts ~ which is a great honour. What I dislike most is when the EDITOR just decides to close it down and it all disappears ! Including yourself I have about TEN cyber Poetic Friends on MPS and I would be sorry to lose then overnight and them me ! It is a good site with a lot of mutual respect & exchange ! We all have to keep active but realistic ~ Yours BRIAN
