"Dinner Invitation"
if I at this keyboard
proffer
thoughts of how I feel
among the dirt paths
within the valleys green
reduce opportunities
infer profanities
slimming hopes
dulcet rhythms
increasing mirth
whence shall arise
understanding
that only I shall know
offer me
on your keyboard
thoughts of how you feel

How poetically put my friend. How does anyone know the thoughts of another without comment made by them. So empty poems read without response. As a species we rely on communication and one way leaves us hanging with no feedback we know not how to respond. I write for myself and as therapy but it is rewarding knowing that I am not alone and that others share the same feelings and thoughts. A lovely write my friend and one well needed in that so small a percentage of those that read respond. Look at the numbers of reads you have and compare them to the number of comments. I have read every poem posted for the last two years on this site and it is almost exclusively the same people that respond. I may soon restrict myself to responding only to those that respond to mine.
