Starward commented on: Freely Hidden by rachel 4 years 30 weeks* ago* And I encourage you to write: And I encourage you to write one, or several. I wish I had been able to read poems like yours during my adolescence, half a century ago. I struggled with desires that were, then even more than now, deemed inappropriate; and what constituted beauty for me was not shared by most of my classmates and peers. Therefore, I could not speak openly. I am certain---110%---that there are others like me on this site or elsewhere. They need the encouragement of your poems to help them with their own struggles.

Starward commented on: Casey by rachel 4 years 30 weeks* ago* What a beautiful, and most: What a beautiful, and most poignant, lament---for lost love, lost friendship, lost closeness and nearness. I hope this situation will resolve itself for you . . . but the way you write of it calls for more poems in this same voice, and on this same subject. There are others---many of whom you will not meet or know directly---who can be helped by such a poem. [ go to comment ]
