Poetry & writing are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
I like the way you did it.musty scent of love
BTW, disqus is not user friendly way of commenting.
thanks Gautami.. glad u liked the way I did it..regards the Disqus, hmm, thanks for letting me know 🙂 will see..!
well said Leo…:)we do need connoisseur to help us with our aspirations to become famed authors…:)this is a unique way of doing the prompt! you really know how to make your posts interesting without sacrificing the essence of it!i am contemplating of using Discus too but i dunno how to go about it, i tried this morning and my blog comments were lost so i reverted to the old…:P we're u able to load comments from old posts since u used discus???
Fabulous Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!
thanks Amity, glad u liked my way of doing the prompt.sure.. if it meant I'd lose old comments, I'd not even put it here in the first place! 🙂 I liked the Disqus, coz it means I can reply to each of my readers separately. Thanks to Rumz, who put me on to it 😉 check in Tools @ Disqus Amity. there is facility for importing your blogs comments.. and also keeping Disqus in sync with blogger too, so u wont lose what u get in Disqus.I haven't lost any old comment, not even for the posts of 2008 even.
thanks Sahana! 🙂 glad u liked it! 😀
thanks Gautami.. glad u liked the way I did it..
Authors do have to be vary of the 'connoisseur critic' as they could tear you to shreds but their valuable comments are always worth considering. Nice poem!! 🙂
yes, always worth considering.. a good critic can either make or break an author right? :)glad u liked it! 🙂
If constructive, the words of a connoisseur can make us better. Even if we don't always agree! I like your take on the prompt. Its a dilema we all face. 🙂
Unique and deep. Experts comments are to be respected so that we learn and improve. However theirs is also just an opinion, a point of view, and should not be allowed to break your heart.
Yes Rob, a dilemma we all face! 🙂 😀 Connoisseur's words must be taken in a right sense, then we can become better.
Yes, true what u say Harshad sir, we should take it in a right sense..! After all, they are pointing our mistake and not trying to bring us down..! 🙂
Now, if that connoisseur critic would just learn 'constructive criticism' there would be less heartbread and ill feelings. 🙂 I liked this, Leo. It reminds me of a lady who claimed her gift from God was criticism…
haha 😀 true true.. all connoisseur critics don't learn that constructive criticism do they? :)glad u liked it Jim 🙂 was wondering where u were all day.. welcome! 😉
I've always seen a wide difference between a connoisseur and a critic, but… Nice poem.
thanks Tumblewords! 🙂
Excellent interpretation and works on lots of levels. It’s amazing that a “connisseur” wields so much power to raise up and destroy all usually based on their own opinions.
hi Patti 🙂 yeah lots of power to raise up or bring down.. mostly the latter if the fellow is a hard hitting one!
