And others that 'in my opinion' are not
But there's one thing I will not do
Is comment with utter rot

I don't mind seeing constructive criticism
And we all can use a little praise
When you think that we are mostly non pro
And sometimes a rhyme we cannot raise

Sometimes our rhymes they are quite forced
And sometimes they just flow freely
Our lines they may not be easy to read
As some may spell phonetically

We come from many differing lands
And cultures that to some seem strange
But remember how small this world of ours
And how broadly the internet does range

Our membership is made of both young and old
And every age between
Please let our site show the world
We can live us all harmoniously... I'm keen!

............

So now I will just say "thanks my reader"
For taking their time on this poem
And reading this that's hastily written
Tho not the best, to me it's known. [comments] => 16 [counter] => 826 [topic] => 69 [informant] => Mick_Puttock [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 30 [ratings] => 6 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => poets )

Well hello there Mick,
I'm really happy to see this post.
Good work. As you know,I read lotsa poetry on here.
Many others do too.
I agree tottaly. It definently caught my attention, what you've written about here.
Every now-n-then someone just has to stir up hate-n-discontent.
Sometimes it's better not to say anything at all if you don't have something descent to say.
Hurray for our awesome web master!
Luv, huggs, blessings to you, amy, and the wild buntch,
emy
