Quote by AvrgBlkGrl
Do you enjoy poetry that makes you stop, think or changes the way you look at things, something profound?
Quote by TaliaRussell
When I was a kid, I thought that when I looked up in the sky and could see the clouds move, that I was seeing the earth turning.
Quote by TaliaRussell
As I read various works, and then review comments, it seems to me that readers often think the work they are reading is somehow autobiographical (unless it is more in the fantasy genre). My first impulse, unless a work is stated to be in the autobiography category, is to assume it is fiction -- including poetry.
Quote by paulus
Maybe you should just see it as a compliment. Autobiographical or not, you tried to convey a feeling with the poem, and judging by the empathy in the comments, you clearly succeeded.

However — and I apologize for being nitpicky about it — the All tab really ought to be the default.
Quote by rolandlytle
This is strictly a speculative thought. It would need to go though the powers that be to see if it were possible and acceptable.

To me, though, it seems redundant to have the second button for poetry. Because right there, in the side bar, is the button for poetry, and it takes you to the same place the other button does. Except the poems are then excluded by default from the front page, because the stories button is the default front page.
Quote by gypsy
Personally I liked the old front page, stories & poems mixed, better.

Goodness me, what a lovely little gem to be tucked away on this thread! I am surprised that it is not on the main page as it is utterly charming. Please consider submitting this wonderful poem again...
