HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME

I too question, like you: Why is body so mean? I never imagined it would degenerate so fast!


Your Sin-My Misery, My Guilt, My Shame

2015-03-19
I must congratulate you on the excellent last four lines of the poem. It's tribute to the woman's spirit everywhere. Great lines.

Troubled Soul

2015-03-19
I read you after a long time. This poem is so inspiring that I read it twice. When your spiritual spirit is high, you can complete it. Otherwise, you edit it with some climactic line.


Pearls of Word 1

Hope

The poem shows your deep anguish and sense of disappointment.
I too agree with you when you question how to look for hope in hopelessness.

Broken Rod[Tanka]

2007-01-28
the tanka made me smile. i am also aware that you might like to revise it though the contrast between fishing rod and mallet wont let you retouch it.

Silk Soft Surrender by M.A.Meddings

2006-12-22
Yes, Mike: Love is indeed beautiful. And, the involving passion, which you call HELPLESS AND FREE, is a great imagery. I read the poem several times, feeling each word, deep within.

Please don't get so sad, la tristesse. You seem to be in a reflective mood in most of your poems.

Nirvana

2006-10-29
Yes, striving is right. you do reach higher, with striving, and relaxing to reflect, and strive again. That is the nirvana at the end.
A good poem, indeed

Sweetest are the Songs...

2006-10-19
Hi, Zoya: the poem's rhythmic flow evokes a ghazal-like feeling. Excellent.


Don't call me hey

2006-10-18
Hi, zainab: I liked the irony of your Hey very much. The last line makes more sense.

You are simply superb here: reaching the soul through the body-- something I have always believed in.

The mask

2006-08-22
It's haiku-like, but the last line reveals the poet's realisation.
Good.

Insomnia

2006-07-12
Hi, you have expressed what I too have been suffering since a very long time.... But, is there no relief, even after sex?
R K

Alone

2006-07-12
An intense expression of loneliness, perhaps preparatory to good creativity? ... Fine

I Love You In Your Bikini by M.A.Meddings

2006-06-05
Hi, Mike: This poem makes me smile. The sheer sensuousness of the poem interests me most.
R K


reflecting

2006-05-07
Hi Gautami, reading your 3-liners I get a feel that you can write much better haiku if you could avoid using adjectives that inspire or make you think/feel. Just try to create the images as observed in your inspired vision or experiences, and leave the rest for readers.
Hope, you don't mind my saying this.
R K


Solitary

2006-05-07
The image has a feel of sensuousness. Fine.

Passing Through by M.A.Meddings

2006-05-03
I was just a stranger passing through ... Excellent, Mike.


Abyss

2006-05-02
Perhaps you could alter the last line a bit and say: "it is looking back":

Watching in silence
I stare into the abyss:
it is looking back.


a rose faded young

2006-05-01
I sense a maturity of voice in the poem's simplicity. Excellent
R K


CONSUMMATION

2006-04-27
I am sure, Rik's comments would help every reader finding difficulty with other's expressions. I fully agree with my poet friend.
R K


MAKING LOVE

2006-04-19
Thanks, Angie, Kathy and Mike for appreciating the haiku. Onyeka may not have a taste for haiku but let's assure our poet friend that whatever the form of poetry, the important thing is to enjoy the moments of sensory pleasure, like a beautiful natural sight,such as sunrise or sunset, being involved with friends, family, at work, in romance/sex/love, or hobbies, and using personal abilities/strengths in some meaningful way. Reading and writing a haiku is no way a MEANINGLESS exercise; it is essentially a spiritual act, feeling the spirit behind one's momentary experiences.
R K


PASSION AND PLEASURE

2006-04-18
It's passion in anticipation; love-longing in action. Good
R K


Victory

2006-04-18
The poem bespeaks your intense faith, love and hope: a true Chrisitian sensibility.

A great poem.

Birds crouch in nests
along the snowclad path--
wheezing silence

I wrote it exactly 13 months ago.

Women of True Love

2006-03-16
What you say about forbidden love or true love as adulterous sounds NATURAL. I remember to have read somewhere that Shelley also characterised SIN as beautiful-- beautiful like sin, he said in a context. If one views love as something NON-MORAL, or one is NON-MORAL in various relationships, one won't suffer the crises Emma, Tess, or Hester suffered.


Descending waves

A good read, and a nice reflection on your experience.

Enchantment of the first kiss (Valentine Special)

2006-02-16
Well articulated is your feeling of love. Your spirit is untiring just as your spiritual base is solid: "The heart was mine, but the throbbing his". Excellent.

Love Is Believable
