     When I read 'Love' I felt as though I had been hugged fiercely just at the moment I needed it the most. So while you may think 'it doesn't matter', realize that at least one soul begs to differ.<BR>
<BR>
it matters...

Gala~ 'HeartAche in Season' is about the most beautiful poem about autumn I have ever read. And what a wonderful allegory  on love and the heart. I am in AWE of YOU!<BR>
<BR>
Paul~ Great addition to the bump guppy started.....<BR>
<BR>
it doesn't matter~ I agree.....'Love' had a very intimate feel that made me feel like my love was posting something only for me under an assumed identity, as I'm sure everyone who read it felt the same. Very effective!<BR>

   Dear terry,<BR>
<BR>
       Your poem 'The Seeds' is absolutely magnificant.<BR>
 You have made Mother Teresa proud! It has such resounding healing qualities to it. I will frame it in a place close<BR>
to my heart! Thank-you. <BR>
<BR>
   Love - by it doesn't really matter was also captivating! I loved it! Just wish you'd change your name though, because it doesn't suit your writing abilities. Wouldn't<BR>
you agree?<BR>
<BR>
   Fire in the Pines - by Gala. Your metaphor of comparing<BR>
your life to the Pine Barrens is wonderful, very endearing!<BR>
Thank-you.

 Dear it doesn't really matter,<BR>
<BR>
    You are absolutely right. Your name isn't what's <BR>
important. As a poet I like to imagine what the other poet's<BR>
looks like. Are they male or female.  It's only natural right? Just reaching for another response, it really doesn't matter! I can't wait to read more of your poetry! What's your email address?<BR>
Maybe I am getting to personal, but that's my nature!<BR>
<BR>
I've got a suggestion for the next theme poem:<BR>
   "What's in a name?" Start bumping...what a challenge!<BR>
