I really like this, Magic.

First stanza is so painfully beautiful!

Your works never fail to amaze me :)

Thank you, Rachel! So glad you liked this one and I think that first stanza is my favourite too ;)

You just have a brilliant way with words, Magic -
and I mean this is the nicest way, but considering you're eighteen, it's truly amazing. I would happily go out and buy a book of your poetry any day :)

You're more than welcome for your comment,

Rachel xx

Wow! Rachel, thank you so much for such a lovely comment. You've made my day - I'm over the moon that you appreciate my work. And you know, if I ever do get anywhere with my poetry and get an anthology published, you'll be at the top of my mailing list ;)

Magic xxx

Yay! :)

Right, well I'm gonna be hounding my postbox now, Magic! I have every confidence you will, have you tried yet?

No, honestly, I really do enjoy reading your work and how you see the world, you have some lovely perspectives. I always like to give credit where it's due, so there's no need for the thanks, you are very welcome:)

Oh, and if I strike it lucky and get an anthology myself, I'll return the favour ;o) (closest I've got is being published in vanity presses - ARGH!!)

Very,very beautiful as always Magic. I am confident that you will have no problem getting your poetry published, I too would love to read an anthology full of your poems!

My favourite stanza;

"Nothing is captive -
times spins so fast
the colours are blurred."
Fabulous image!

Beeme xx

This really is so beautiful, Magic. Sorry I'm late commenting...only just logged on after a hectic day.

You imagery is once again magnificent...only Beeme 'stole' my favourite lines;-)

Much enjoyed on a rain-soaked, and boisterous mad March evening.

Beautiful imagery, as usual; lovely piece and don't forget to put me on that mailing list either... ;)

Chris XXXX

Thank you, Chris! Don't worry, I won't ;)

all of the above!, for me the end lines stand out esepcially, v.v.good,:~}

Thanks, Shirley! I always try to end my poems with a bang so glad you liked the last lines ;)

Magic xxx

Aaw Magic! I understand this, I have dreaded separation in my past & this is so perfectly sad, time blurring asif wasted, even though sky blue hours! Still, don't despair, you dont know that ending yet. Kahdai xxx

Thank you for your kind words, Kahdai! And you're right, there's still time left ;)

Very wonderful. Nails that terrifying combination of the glimpse of infinity in a moment and the knowledge that it isn't really infinite, waiting for the ship to sink, for summer to end.

But then winter isn't so bad for those of us who enjoy our melancholy ...

Thanks, Rob! Glad you like this one ;) I've a terrible habit of indulging in those melancholy feelings - but it does seem to create my best poetry!

Thank you, Julie! I'm glad you like this one ;)

Pure Magic! ;-)

You write such heart-warming poetry. It is always a pleasure to read and this is further proof that you are an exceptional writer.

A wonderful poem. Well done.

Nathan xox

Awww thanks Nathan! I'm just glad you think my poetry is 'heart-warming' and not morbid or depressing ;) Thank you so much for such a lovely comment!

Magic xxx

You might have put your name out here as MistakenMagic but every word that you write seems to be magical. Though people say sometimes Magic is just an illusion but your words aren't an illusion. They are just well and truly magical without any sort of illusion, but yes full of images.
As always, WOW on this one as well.
Vidit

And I say WOW to your comment Vidit! Seriously, thank you so much for such lovely feedback - readers' comments are what keeps me going and encourges me to keep writing, so thanks for urging me on ;)

Magic xxx

Well done on the cherry Magic! :)

Beeme xx

Thank you Beeme! :)

Very nice work, MM! That poem parallels life, full of contradictions, yet tempered by the loves in our lives. You capture the essence of living in the moment and share quite well. Keep it up. Richard LP
