Eight lessons I learned in life... (In the order I learnt them)

Very well written.
Where others would drone on and on with the message you convey you have managed to pack so much into this piece in a succinct compact way.
It\'s punchy and truly meaningful.
I like it.

Awesome read and write. Loved the message. First options of one means a lot. If your misread it\'s almost impossible to get another shot!

Love this! Is there anything as intimidating as a blank piece of paper?! You\'ve captured the struggle Andrew. Captured and conquered!

Oh, I wouldn\'t bother too much about William Blake - bit eccentric, bit batty at times! Some good stuff too though. One about a tiger on fire, I suppose: \'Tiger, tiger, burning bright!\' I dunno these things. lol.

I am here, I am the storm
SLR said:
I\'ll always loved that motto. Fear the storm? I AM THE STORM!! So many great lines in this one. Plus I\'ve always loved storms. Great post! I\'m sorry I\'m just discovering your work. But on the other hand, yay, I\'ve discovered your work!

I\'ve just seen your work. I really like your style. Love this! So many people don\'t take the time to really appreciate the simplistic/complex beauty of nature. A single flower. A leaf. A tree. But now I have to read ALL your posts AND find Ms Fay\'s post about spring. :-) :-)

Unfinished Business #1
SLR said:
I really like this. It reminds me of times when I was growing up. Exactly like you described. Black skies, fierce winds but after a while it just passed. Didn\'t do any damage really. I would just stand out in it. It was like God was blowing the dust off the earth. A great memory for me. I had nearly forgotten. Thank you so much for reminding me! Great rhythm and word usage! Great write. Thank you so much for sharing.

My turn to comment on your work after your words - and this is truly a superb piece - It just flows so well and, unlike many rhyming pieces, it doesn\'t strain to maintain the rhyme - a mark of a good write.
