This is why the angels cry
I am following on Senna Jawa's notion of letting us work a bit more. Other wise the ideas are right on.
Is it half full or half empty? Maybe we can make this world a little nicer than when it first began. Good read
You can write! You proved it. Your poem has tempo, energy.
But you have written everything, and left nothing for the reader. Now I know why angels cry. You told me like you were a teacher and I were a first grade student--"this is why the angels cry". Indeed. But I would like to have things to dwell on on my own after reading a poem.
Best regards,
Senna Jawa
They are a good topic to wonder and to write about.
Me, I believe Angels. I've met a few in my life. Unfortunatly, the Devils in today's society and societies past far out number the Angels today.
Thanks for the poem
Okay, you are on the hook, now. You need to write a poem why angels laugh.
Too many of us focus on the negatives but there are way more positives than negatives otherwise, not of us would have survived our childhoods.
Good poem that made me not want to open and read the morning newspaper.
You got the right of it! It is a harsh world out there and it is not getting any better.
Isn't that only happening on the News?
2010:
Newsflash - CNN 5 Your 5th, 24 hr news program..... 11 people killed in drive-by shootings this morn', Los Angeles rocked by second huge earthquake. President Hilary declares marshall law in another 5 States. Iran brings down 3 more US choppers. Giant Tsunami devastates west coast... Just a few items on this mornings agenda folks... be right back after the commercial break.
The force of this realistic poem makes you want to wade out until it sweeps you out into the current of understanding.
Why the Angels cry ~ indeed.
mentioned in the New Poem Reviews thread (~_~)
