A Comment Is a Gift

   A Comment is a Gift

Here we are and the holidays
approaching! 
I can even vaguely hear the 
reindeer bells in the air.
A poet friend started all this! 
I don't know how she did it, but
indeed, she did.
I have a tiny ceramic tree already
lit sparkling right next to me.

Each comment we that do, can be 
a gift.
I mean when they come from our
heart, it gives another poet a lift! 
I cannot tell you how happy I am
with one of these! 
They make us all happy, both you
and me! 
It's an acknowledgement that
another read I or thee! 

We live in this electronic age.
Some type fast as planes, some 
much slower.
But we are all here at the Poetry
Holiday Ball'

So remember that a human wrote
each poem.
Do comment,if you like the poem.
Do it out of love and compassion.

A touch of love, a dash of humility, 
like the very first snowfall.
So heavenly sweet and so silent, 
under your feet.

A comment.... blesses all here...
An artistic and most creative 
confraternity, 
Contributing to humanity!

Lindsay Laurie Date: 10/2/2020 5:38:00 PM Hello Panagiota … a wonderful verse to encourage writers to participate, not only by posting but to comment on their thoughts, ideas and preserving - thank you indeed Panagiota - Lindsay Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 10/2/2020 6:28:00 PM Lindsay, many thanks for underlIng the act of commenting.I see poems with 160 reads and 8 comments. That says nothing about the quality of the poem at all...but it says a lot about us, We run over Poems like heartless bulldozers. I just don't comprehend such lame behavior! Why write about love or humanity, when in truth we don't know how to even say two nice words to fellow poet. They DO have hearts. And why read only the top poets. Numbers do not indicate quality at all. Best not read than to leave no comment. Pangiexx. Thank you for reading AND commenting. PERFECT.
