Thread: Thought I'd do a little poetry ...

Nice, I like it. I'm not a big fan of poetry but for me to like it it has to have good rhymes and yours has great rhymes. Very easy to read and made sense. If all poetry was like this I would like it more. I might put some poetry up sometime even though I'm probably not that good. Reading yours was almost like that Christmas one ("Twas the night before Christmas", that one) just because of the way the flow was.

By the way that avatar is completely amazing!

Thanks - my style is probs derrived from this as I have heard 'The Night Before Christmas" at least a hundred times.

As for writing - go for it - practice makes perfect!

And yeah ... my avatar seems to be a hit
- you are not alone with that compliment!

Yes, and it needs a re-read. After reading some dodgy translations of Chinese books, I can sort of cope with typos, but still, it'd be better without them (especially since poems are so dense). It's ok, although a bit too simple - I'd very much like to see some others you didn't write so hastily.

I generally don't write with as much meaning as it seems you do (you have some seriously impressive work that I admire - just reading parts of your blog) and I haven't done any poetry seriously in a while - but, I will meet your challenge and aspire to write something mores substansial soon!

I hope I've provided you with something a little more substantial here:
