Peredhil Posted April 15, 2005 Report Posted April 15, 2005 This is now about three years old and I've been wanting to revise it for a while. Wow there's such talent here! I'm just not good enough I fear. Should I post? My grammar just ain't too good, My spellingz just mizunderstood; Should I post? Some of these people are like gods to me. They'll laugh and I'll simply die you see... Should I post? My life's been hard, my heart has died, I wanna die and my computer's fried - Should I post? What if I post and they laugh at me? If expose my heart - and they just don't see... Should I post? How am I gonna learn if'n I don't take the chance? Anyway, I doubt they'll give it more than a glance - Might as well post. Someone read it and understood! They didn't hate me for this mood; My spelling's bad 'n' they didn't care, They waded through and it rated fair! I'm glad I posted! 1 Quote
JaZzMaN251 Posted April 15, 2005 Report Posted April 15, 2005 That's a nice one! I'm into my first little writing thing and I'm thinking about the same things you described. I will post it, 'cause I just wanted to let you all see what's on my mind, or maybe just to give you something to read. Eventually everyone will give a post some kind of appreciation. JaZz. Quote
Lone Shadow Posted April 15, 2005 Report Posted April 15, 2005 The original version was the first piece of writing that I read on these forums, and the sole reason I made my first post. I like them both, thanks for sharing them. Quote

Preprise Posted May 29, 2009 Report Posted May 29, 2009 (edited) This poem is more awesome than frozen bananas and frozen bananas are pretty damn awesome! Edited May 29, 2009 by Jason Newcomb Quote
NightFae Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 I, like Sweet, find myself coming back to this each time I make a return to the Pen. Especially when I haven't made a post in a while and I'm not sure if I should or not. This poem is great at giving an uneasy poet (or playwrite, or storyteller, what have you) the extra little confidence boost necessary to hit that little button. It's funny that people seem to thing it's just as easy as clicking a button. Ha! I wish. Quote
MinimondoT Posted August 4, 2010 Report Posted August 4, 2010 I really loved reading this! The bit about spelling made me think of the way my oldest niece (almost 13) writes online. I don't know if I enjoyed reading or listening to it better but I think this would make an excellent children's book! All of that uncertainty and then the courage to try and the joy at the results Of course, that may just be the teacher in me talking Thanks for writing and posting this! Quote
James Crow Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 This poem hits the nail on the head for me, thanks for writing it. Quote
