Question: What do you think is the percentage of poems that you read that you also leave a comment!?
Most of the time I leave a comment!.!.!. about 75% of the time; when I don't it's usually because I don't have something constructive or witty to say!.!.!. occasionally I have responders block ( similar to writers block) but that's rare!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'd say 80% of the time!. There are times I have no idea at all what the poem is saying - lol!. I don't want to insult the poet or look like an idiot!. So I keep quiet!. Other times, I'm without words for some unknown reason!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I say I leave a comment 25% of the time!. Sometimes someone has already given a better answer than me, so why look like a dumb *** when there`s already a wittier answer!.

The brain has gone numb, sometimes I cannnot really do a fair job of commenting either negative or positive and I walk away, If it is interesting to me I will star it!.
Sometimes I blast out what is on my mind and stick my foot in my mouth!.!.*chokes* I am good at that,
!.!. so I prefer to err on the side of caution
uh the question!?
maybe 90 %Www@QuestionHome@Com

90% BMG!.!.!.!.!.I find that if I am willing to read a piece, I will read it several times and by then I have something to say!. We all post for various reasons!. I see many that post and run when anything negative comes their way!. Sadly, they will even delete their words, not giving us a chance to view, review and spew!.!.!.!.

As of late, I find myself looking for new voices, more and more!. TY Www@QuestionHome@Com

About 90% of the time, I think!.
I'll only leave supportive or complimentary comments!.
If it doesn't move me, I'll say nothing at all, or
if it is so above me, confuses me, because of its
brilliance leaves me scratching my head!.!.!.
that, too, I'll not comment upon!

Maybe 85%, I star most all I read, and sometimes star but not answer, as I don't have the answer, but maybe some one else will!.
I too some times have responders block!. If I don't care for a poem, I
rarely give an answer!.
