Ranger.... if you're lucky to join in when we do ... we could double date.

Lovely imagery.

This is pretty good. I would also like it if you'd use upper case letter whereever necessary. I like the theme you chose and how you've presented it.

Thank you CRL. I honestly didn't think my poem was that good. It's very encouraging to note your critique and vote. Thank you once again.

Yeah, it's good to have you back.

And now, am looking forward to your poems which are long overdue.

Thanks Dovina... and good to see you back after your long absence from PR. How did your biking trip go? Must have had a swell time.

As for the details of the issues of war that I have tried to note down, well, I must agree that I aught to edit that a bit. Maybe I aught to give more emphasis on the baby's needs... must admit that.

Thanks Niphredil, I get the point. maybe I need to change it. Shall see what I can do about it.

And Nephredil, you have a soft corner for children, right? you'll do well in the long run.

I read this out to my five year old and the first thing he says after I read it is... "what is her name?"

Would anyone like to do the honors and name this unfortunate nameless child of my poem?

replying on A Little War Victim by amanda_dcosta 26 Jun 2006, 12:22 AM

Thanks Ranger... this vote was quick. I feel there is some meaning to the lines you mentioned. It's like the baby wonders why it has to be the target for man's hatred and enmity.

However, shall try to see if there's a better way to word it.

Ranger, thank you for your vote of confidence. That's all that matters. whether it evokes mixed reactions from the readers is not important. I'm happy I got your response.

on A Little War Victim by amanda_dcosta 25 Jun 2006, 9:19 AM

Thanks Al.

As for the last lines... it merely means.... come and take me away lest I'm history.

replying on My secret to life by amanda_dcosta 24 Jun 2006, 5:31 AM

Great to hear from you. As for me...its same ol'life... trying to enliven poemranker with a piece or two to keep it going.

replying on My secret to life by amanda_dcosta 23 Jun 2006, 11:16 AM

Thank you very much all the same. Appreciate the vote and comment.

It's a wonder that you care about his sanity.

replying on My secret to life by amanda_dcosta 23 Jun 2006, 8:57 AM

Thanks a ton Al. I'm actually surprised at the response from you guys. Much more than what I expected it to rate. Now lets look out for what Ranger has to say and then I'll be satisfied.
