For me writing and receiving comments, along with their ever-spooling threads, are the connective tissue of the Word Press Community. It affirms me when someone lets me know they “get” what lies beneath my words. I’ve learned things about my writing that I couldn’t have otherwise known. When I comment on a post I look and listen for meaning and reflect it back to the blogger. Intuition and empathy guide me.
And there is more. I love comments where another blogger and I find mutual kinship and continue in threads to “know” each other. After a while we comment and reply with few words like old friends. Blogging has opened up a wondrous new world for me.
i am all about that same wave-lenght thing – have you ever done a poetry dance?
I have not even heard of a poetry dance. Since I love both poetry and dancing I want to hear more. Thanks.
there has to be a way for you to write a poem – then i write a response and link it to your poem
– then you write a response to my response and link it to my poem – and so on till we’re tired. . .
I don’t know if this is done but we can try
Sounds good but I do not know how to link. I do know how to write my url and the other stuff at the top of the post I’ve written.
no problems – write a poem you’d like for me to respond to – let me see if i can write a response and link it to your poem – k?
That’s a good idea. To let you know my poem is on my blog should I write another reply to this comment?
My email is chyfrin at yahoo dot com
Your email address didn’t go through. Any suggestions?
i messed it
try chyfrin437 at yahoo dot com
(can’t believe i left the number off – i was typing on my tablet)
i will try again.
You said this perfectly! I am so happy that we connect like we do through our words! Amazing. ❤
It is a wonder how we can grow a relationship. ❤
Nice sharing though! 💗
I mean wonder in the sense of something wonder-ful. Through writing and photos like yours I feel we bloggers get to know each other in ways our families don’t even know us.
Oh, I agree. Some of my deepest secrets come out through my writing. No one knows me like you all that read my writing. 💗
❤
I found new friends here as well, keep it up 🙂
YES! 🙂
commenting on your comments here… as for the poetry responding… my haiku writing cat participated in a call and respond haiku jam with a haiku writing malamute. What we did is get a theme then emailed the calls and responses back and forth until we ‘finished’ then each posted the results on our blogs. and of course linked to each other. It turned out great. http://2catsandacattledog.com/buffys-haiku-thursday-invitation-to-jam-with-kuruk/
Fun! I love your humor.
You have written my thoughts. Reading comments is such an awesome experience. 🙂
And I like your comment. Thanks. 🙂
You’re so welcome! 😀
Feel the same way!
Thanks for sharing your feelings with me.
