About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: U.S. A. Indiana, Valparaiso, USA

Favorite Poets: Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Carl Sandburg these I have read some And so Many More. I have no Favorite or any that I dislike. Whom I consider to be poets; of course there are many Dark and hateful souls, who would cry out and to I will lend an ear, but some. They just leave a awful taste in my heart that I can not bear to read twice. Let alone as many times I would do normally; as I must.

Thanks, For Pointing that out, I often can read and re read the

Things I write and I correct them in my head, and if they aren't pointed out Or my atention is drawn to them after being away from them for a Time. I will always read them as I think i have wrote them, even if they a writting incorectly. It is odd I know, but I do it all the time, and have always done so with My writings, But with others I cacth their mistakes most of the time because I have to make them work for me. It is weird I know, but That is how my mixed up brain works when it will work. Thanks again, I think I got it right now, but only time will tell. Thanks again Sinbad/Donnie

Oh, I fully understand what

Oh, I fully understand what you mean here.. :) I usually go through the same process.. sometimes loosing myself while writing (LOL!), then I take a rest..when I get back..the feeling is different..sometimes I just go "what was I thinking?!".. I used to have my friends in college to "proof read" my works (and its fun!), now I have NEO..
