Lovely poem, min....

and lovely. Beautifully done. I'm glad I found this one. Thanks, LJ.

Pride - child of the marriage of self awareness and acceptance

Proud - Her Dad’s feeling when reading her poetry and seeing the words document the affirmation of her creativity and her beauty.

wow thanks for sending me back here, I swear I thought I left a comment before... I know I saw it before and loved it then too :)

A word: Pefect. It's a perfect represenation.

i guess i forgot to sign in..this was fawnie trampin around your poetry..lol

reminded me of me!

Even though it was non-erotic, this poem actually got my heart beating faster... very evocative, and very elegant in its use of language. We need more of this sort of work.

A great one minsue. I loved the way you've done the illustration... from the cage to the words, it's done beautifully.

Write more gosling. Or I should say, submit more.

no matter how fancy the cage, the purpose it serves does not change. An excellent metaphoric look at what many call freedom today. Well done.

jim : )

The Poet Gosling, but the cage is to small for a goose...lol, great poem Min~ I see a shining star of poetry here and look forward to more.

Gosling, you do me proud. I can relate to this, especially today.

Very well done Min. Made me feel almost desperate, like I was circiling in the cage, looking for a way out too.

Bravo!

Thank you

Hey, told ya. :)

Min,

This is wonderful! I loved it when I saw it in a thread and I'm so happy you stuck with it. So very proud of you. Keep it up, sweets.

the words complement the colors. Your use of silver and gold against the black is very attractive, a combination I have always found soothing and inspiring..good work :)

I enjoyed this illustrated piece, it's a graceful sad dream. Wonderful work!

Lovely illustration to go with the words Min. You should keep posting and writing. Poetry seems to become you.

are a wonderful mimic of the desperate beast. Pretty words and pretty picture. Nice job!
