Teytonon commented on: MINIMUM WAGE by georgeschaefer 4 weeks 22 hours ago
Even though you toil..: Even though you toil  Yes, for little pay  Let other people scoff Let them have their say   They mock you as you toil? Let them mock, I say  To mock those who used to toil Continue to the present day   I used to mock them myself  But I found a better way Let them stop using the toil Let them be full of crap all day

Teytonon commented on: sex and french toast by tallsquirrelgirl 4 weeks 1 day ago
The title of your poem..: The title of your poem, which I enjoyed reading, reminded me of something the late, great Rodney Dangerfield said about an old girlfriend: 'She was so sexy, she got her tongue caught in the toaster making French toast!' By the way, do you know if you take the letters of your screen name and scramble them, you can come up with the following: TALL SQUIRREL GIRL = R RL QUALLTIES GIRL For many men looking for a long-term relationship, a common complaint is 'I meet many women, who like me, are ready to give up the single life and settle down, maybe start a family, but these womens qualities are superficial. Where do I find a woman of substance, a woman with real qualities?' Thank you for giving these men hope that there are women of qualities such as yourself, out there. Take care. PS - Because I have no self-control, I also was looking at what I assume is your actual name: MAYA HANSON = AYA HANNSOM! Whoever is the special man in your life is one lucky guy. Is that how you greet him when you see him? I would love to have a woman say that to me! And from a woman of real qualities too! How lucky can a guy get? Wanted to let you know one last thing. You might not, for whatever reason , not address that special man in your life by what I came up with by scrambling the letters of your name. If that's the case, I can only say one thing to you MAYA HANSON = AN SHAM ON YA!

Wordman commented on: Moonset at Winter's End by patriciajj 4 weeks 2 days ago
The winter in its hungered: The winter in its hungered death, challanges patience, delaying hope and its bounty, leaving us adrift to its will.  Yet when painted by hands that also recognize the beauty, the rewards that await those who dream, who conquer, even themselves, the truth is unmistakeable.  Your inspiring words always resonate deeply, you write of hope, the beauty of truth that is often overlooked in life, and the remembering that if we look close enough, we may still find some of those traits in ourselves.    uh, I'm running out of adjectives, so,  neato.

You have been in my prayers: You have been in my prayers for days and I will continue to bombard Heaven with requests for your peace, comfort and well-being. You are greatly valued here; you've touched so many lives and your poems, believe me, are an inspiration. Take care of yourself and remember: you are in God's hands, the most loving Hands, the very, very best of Hands.    Heartfelt prayers and eternal gratitude.

Teytonon commented on: Where does time go? by LUGO 4 weeks 3 days ago
Where does time go? A senior responds..: Where does time go? A senior responds. Used to play in the sand box, spades with friends? I don't play anymore. My mind plays with me. Forgetfulness, seeing things that aren't there, etc. Used to wear Pampers, underwear? I wear Depends. Used to have a school bus waiting, then you have you wait and you pay? I have Access-A-Ride. Don't pay. Sometimes they're good, other times suck. Used to wear nametags, jewelry? I wear a nametag. So I don't forget who I am. Used to practice ABC's, for the SAT's? I use an EMT, have a DNR notice next to my bed. Used to be given everything, then had to work to earn it? I'm retired. I have an aide that gives everything I ask of her. Helps me get out of bed in the morning, help me when I need to use bathroom, prepares my lunch, etc. You're the best Patricia! Used to watch Channel 13 and MTV? I watch PornHub. Since I can't actually do anything anymore, this is the next best thing. Used to shop at kids world, etc..? I shop through the AARP website. What happened to you? You grew up. My friend, I don't know anything about you and what you've gone through in your life. For all I know, you may not be around anymore. I just want to tell you, in many respects, it doesn't get any easier as you get older. My mother used to say 'They call it the Golden Years? Feels more like brass'. Take care.
