This is a great piece. I see no reason for people to be negative here. If you don't like it, pass on by. Thanks for your input. God bless.

Comment from I am Cat

Excellent

Christine,
Very well said, my dear! ;)
lol
This site is, as is the rest of the world, less accepting than one would think, of all views, races, religions, and thoughts. I actually (for the most part) left FB because of the meanness and lack of understanding...
and wanted to be with people who were open to thoughts and feelings of all kind. Open to the ideas that we can and do write things that may or may not be of our beliefs.... however, yeah... seems the world isn't that way. LOL
Seems also, "the land of the free and the home of the brave" is the worst ever.
The least accepting, and the least tolerant of others.

I'm not proud at all.
Not in the least.
:(

Your poem is well written with some amazing end rhymes which are well thought out and go after my own heart.
VERY well done, Christine, not only for getting at the heart of the matter, but in doing it with a flair!
Cat

Hi dear Cat, I send many thanks for your review and thoughtful comments. I joined FS to learn and grow as a poet and writer , but at times I can see a thread of nastiness coming through, and It dissapoints me to think even here people are awful at time to each other. I love writing for this site and hope I would never cause upset with my words and try to be professional as I can be and enjoy the friendships and fun along the way. Our world is quite sad at the moment. Anyway I will stay on and do my best. Many Cheers my friend Christine😃

You have always been kind and supportive... I, for one, appreciate it, and I know that others do as well.
I strive to do the same myself. ;)
Hugs to you
Cat

I find your rhyming quite delicious
As your sharp words admonish us
Some barbs hit, while others missus
Cupid's though, are the ones that kissus!

Hi prettybluebirds, Thanks so much for reading ad reviewing my work, I am glad you liked the artwork, I wasn't sure what to use for this but when I saw the dog and the pen beside it I thought thats the one to represent my meaning. Have a great day Cheers Christine😃

Excellent

I thoroughly enjoyed your poem and the use of the "ious's" within.

Your theme rings true as there are reviewers who think they are the dog in the photo.

Nicely done. John

Hi William, As always many thanks for your support and for giving me a sixer for this. I can't see the point of being awful to each other either in writing or reviewing posts and I can see how much grief it can causes ,so I just couldn't resist a reminder to be nice. Many Cheers my friend and you also have a great day. Cheers Christine😃

Hi Dorothy, Never, You would not warrant this message, but I have seen some posts that would be better left unsaid and I am all for opinion and often have one, but as long as it never offends I can rest easy. Many thanks for your support and reviews of my work I enjoy your work and comments. Have a great day. Cheers Christine x 😃
