In the lost and beautiful past
Along the road of dreams
I wander where there are no murmurings
My path, my way, my wandering
Steps do stray and
Blossomed from the
Dust that was me
Vain is the hope the magic
To the delicate mind
To watch the pale
Moon’s melancholy ray
And wish – wishes that cannot be
Dearest remembrance consume
Me through and through
And leave but ash and
The bliss of eternity
‘Wish wishes that cannot be’ what a line!
Would you please tell me what you think about this poem? Someone on another site said some things.I don’t know why I’m letting it bother me because all they do is wtite bad Haiku, and it is bad!to tell you the
truth I don’t even think they read it before they commented and told me what was wrong with it. They gave me a favorite line from my poem, the only thing was it was not from my poem, it had nothing to do with my poem.
I never comment on anything unless I think it’s good. I’ll tell you one thing and I mean it from experience. If someone says bad about your writing ignore it. Only if you’re ever told something that’s right pay attention. Some folk are just bad. If you can’t say something good don’t say anything at all, I was told.
Me too, if I don’t like a poem I just go to the next one. Oh well, I was mad and told him off, I told him he should read a poem before he starts telling someone what is wrong with it and that I did not care if he did not like it because I did not write it for him. I guess I should not have done that. It just made me mad that he did not even know what the poem was about.
You did the right thing especially if it made you feel better.
Don’t let anyone tell you you aren’t good because you are. 🙂
Thank you, and it did make me feel better! I know not everyone one is going to like my poems and that is fine. I’m like you, if you can’t say something nice then just don’t say any thing at all.
🙂
