WOW Scotty! This is great! never mind the brilliance
of the poem itself, but the thought provoking
poetry within the picture is absolutely incredible!
Perfectly blended, dear. This is wonderful...damn I
wish I could adequately express myself, as this
magnificent creation demands!

Amazed.....

Wow, Nazzy. This is definatly one of your best.

I love the words you used, and even the AABB rhyme. Not many can do it very well, you have done it really well though.

The picture goes really well, too, though I normally prefer imagining a poem in my head, this works really well.

Great job, my friend.
*hugs*

I like this. It looks like you put a lot of time into it. The meaning of the poem is deep and soul stirring. The picture just brings it out more.

I saw this as soon as it posted and was quite literally blown away. From both a technical and creative perspective... it's entirely fabulous. Philly's right... it is definitely one of your best. And that --- given the quality of the work you have posted on this site --- is saying an awful lot.

I absolutely love this. To be honest, I'm a bit of a hard sell when it comes to included graphics... I'm normally overly picky about the picture, sometimes disappointed in the write (thinking not enough care was taken with the words for having gotten distracted by choosing/including a picture), etc. But this... this is unbelievably good in all regards. Exceptional write... and beautifully presented!!!!

OHMYGOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was just outstanding Nazzy; you painted your feelings well with this piece. Even without the picture you could truly identify the meaning of each word and syllable.

I love the presentation as well. This is something new you've taped into and I like it.

*Thinking Philly and Christine *grins* were right on calling this your best work so far.*

Well good sir, need I say anything more then that which has already been said?...yes, need I must!
What helps this piece along is that the flow , rhythmn and rhyme are so well done. They take nothing away from the content of the piece...which is exceptional! There is such a feeling of age and wisdom here. I often use the word crafted to describe a great piece, but I want to add the word "blended", because that is what you have done so well. You have taken many great facets and blended them together into this fantastic work of art.

Removes cap and bows, and with sweeping gesture replaces cap on head..Incredible Nazzy!!

Naz,

It's hard to put into words how awesome this poem is. The graphics in combination with the verse and rhyme all blend so perfectly. I find your talent humbling, yet inspiring. I tried writing a poem on aging a while back, but couldn't come up with anything I liked. Well I love this poem, Nazzy

Fantastic write, I sometimes wonder why you don't get published.

Will/Terry

'my first attempt at a post like this'
'a post like this'?..This is a gem of a post.
Seems that you almost want to defend the style in which you have written...why?
This is an excellent poem,with which,I am now well acquainted and it is certainly going into my favourites file,
