Once a river
with water fowl
sun dried, cracked,
smelling foul
The Flora, fauna,
died away
lungfish beneath
the fetid clay.
In a list
A Shocking Tale Of Horror!

Very different, I must say but I do like it
Thank you for being part of the contest! -

Oh, LOVE poems! YESSSSSS!
Love poems are for melting hearts and you have written a beautiful collection of "melt her heart quickly" poetry. 
Writing romantic poetry is dangerous because the poet must either draw from memories or look about for inspiration and either one is like a trip to the Undone Zone.

what?!..you were her too?..oh lords..i'm really starting to wonder..she was on my faves list before she disappeared.
-

Yeah, I decided one day I'd give Yem an online girlfriend but no one noticed that she was flirting with him so I got bored.
Yes, you visited Sandy once and she returned the favor. You were the only one on Yem's fav list that she did read a poem of.
No, there is no need to wonder, all my characters avoid people I know as a general rule. I don't like to openly trick people. But if they see things and wonder...like Sandy liking Yem...then that would be their own fault.

hehe..she was a journalist as i recall, and i was intensely interested to see what she could produce with her writing background...i found her poetry very..feminine and slightly fragile..but i wanted to see how she might grow.
I do recall that she seemed to like you a lot, and i smiled..who could blame her?..and then seeing you had quite an interest in her as well, i pursued othr avenues..to allow the master to develop his new protege..i am sure i didnt think those things so specifically, but that's the general gist..what happened to her?..sent overseas to cover the "war"? -
-
Yep, freelance journalist. And cool, I wanted her poems to sound fragile, so it worked. I always meant to write fiction for her but it just never happened.
What happened to her? Good question. I don't know why I killed her off. Just got tired of it I guess. I usually tired of my characters within a week.
I think she's Sherlock Holmes2 now but won't be for long, lol

or quick change
the header's "To -----"
I know that thing!
You write good stuffs, but somehow when you 'wear' a woman's hat, you do it a bit different, different tone, and the result is great!
-
-
Yeah that headers thing, I was whining about something or other, I forget now what and I'm too lazy to go read it and find out. Thanks!

How am I supposed to comment on the whole collection? It's too much work.
The sailor one was cool. I've had my share of sailors in my day and well, yep.
I would love to see you in a halter top
The questionnaire was funny. I remember when you won for yours. It was a rare funny moment for you
You were quite effective in a number of respects channeling a female perspective and voice.

March poems, love poems at their best. You write well when you seem to be in love
Will return to read the rest, if memory doesn't fail me

self-love poems. These were Sandy74's and I wrote them to myself...not that there are that many "love" poems here. A couple maybe.
"Will return to read the rest"
Does anyone ever actually do that?

Oh and you are multifaceted as noted. YeMayne, you never cease to amaze, serious, silly, both impress, there is so much in here and I kept thinking, oh I like this best, no I like this best and on and on...
Your Gifts after all the years I've been reading you just keep me coming back and back tto read more of you, you still just amaze, sigh, y'know, you are brilliant and I am awestruck at times by the many ways in which you so easily write ...yup, agreed, gems in here and no wonder Yem too is a gem, so that means Yem is one and writes many, many.
Yem the one of many names, perhaps but all our dear Mayne!
-
The multifaceted Mainer,
lights relecting from each
polished gem................
Bravo for re-collecting these
and letting the light shine.
