Heather! :o Why on earth would you lose confidence with your writing????? :shock: Girlfriend - what the hell are you thinking. :? You write great poetry and shouldn't doubt yourself for a minute. Get off your butt girly and get writing. This poem is delightful - now go find the others :lol:

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Thanks Neville. I see everything poetically - putting it into words is the hard bit.

Marty spring is bright, pretty, full of flowers and new life, daffodils, baby lambs, yellow light on the tips of the trees - very feminine - there is a renewal of nature. I guess winter is the opposite to that so that makes it a "he". :)

Maureen, I don't write as good as I want to and probably never will.

Thanks for your kind words. I really appreciate that you have all taken the time to comment.

Heather :)

"gift" is probably stretching it a bit Marty - but thanks for the vote of confidence! :oops:

I'm with Maureen on this one Heather but I would have said BUM . Butt is just too American for me.


anyway I think you write very ( in you own words ) NOICE.

Yes, Heather, I'm curious, too. Tell us more about the loss of confidence in your writing. How come?
