Question: It really is a very nice destination, regardless of the jagged!.!.!.!?
!.!.!.!.road that runs sideways up the hill that struggles to be a mountain, and when I come here to the Poetry section on Y!A, I read a lot of poems, I comment very little, sometimes in vain or without proper forethought, but still I show up and stand in the golden grass near the edge of an idea and watch and read and re-read and I truly like these mini-vacations that I take every day!. I thumb up, never down, I block and unblock but never report, I defend and offend and through it all the sun always manages to bend the clouds back and shoot a ray in my general direction!.

Do you prefer watching or writing!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

My ventures down this creative path has been because of your recommendations through stars!. For now I am a watcher!.!.!.but who knows what the future really holds!.!.!.if you can put it out there maybe I could, too!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Both, but right now I have to settle for watching as my muse has abandoned me once again!. I may not always know how to respond to your posts, but I always enjoy reading them!.
Y!A poetry has been a place for me to escape and relax as well!. I love it here and despite the occasional craziness, I don't plan to leave any time soon!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

What a beautiful way to present this image, Buk!.
Write or read depends on my needs and abilities!.!.!.
write when I need to pour something out,
read when I want to learn or be transported,
comment when I'm clearheaded and fresh,
sit back and say nothing if I'm too cluttered to comprehend
or too touched to speak!.

I lack the ability to express my thoughts into something tangible !. My abilities are better suited to observe, admire, and praise!. I thank you for allowing me to do so!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I prefer writing!. When i get so lost in my thoughts i like watching!.I love to write when the spirit hits me!. One word might get me to writing , one phrase!.Your interpretation was very moving!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Since I`m not a writer, I suppose you can call me a watcher!. As a one time Private Investigator I did plenty of watching!. Be careful because I could be watching you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like writing, except when I read someone who speaks of being 'on the edge of an idea!.' Then, I wonder why I even write anything at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm a better listener, but like jotting things down!.!.!.mayhaps one of these days, I will want to share, for now I watch and learn!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I read ,wait and watch,someday the block may break,or not!.Things are just as they are supposed to be!.!.,I guess!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm a watcher my friend as you well know!. Writing is not my forte I'm afraid!. Now a good story I can write, but poems are not very good!. ?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I prefer to observe until I have something of worth, which isn't all that often!. Most of my writings don't fit in this warm environment!. I honestly don't fit in--I'm not kidding--but I want to!. I would very much like to be a happier, warmer person--not for me, but for my kids!.
And, yes I read more than I comment on!. That's because I know I sometimes answer without proper forethought!. A lot of times I spend too long on an answer!. I really should think about THIS answer more for example, but, at the moment, I'm excited!.
I would just like to say that I've never blocked anybody!. Never had a reason to!. And, I am well aware that I often times offend people, I don't do it intentionally, honest; it's just my personality I guess!.

Your message has been dully noted!.
Thank you

Beautifully said Buk!. I like to write and read as well!. I often feel inspired by others writings and love to share with others as well!. For the past hour I just wrote a heart moving tribute to a dear friend who just this morning I was told passed away a month ago!. She had been my school teacher, my mentor and my friend throughout my whole life!. She had always encouraged me to write what was in my heart!. She loved life and her faith and enthusiasm held to the end!. I wrote a tribute on my 360 page, and lost my connection before it posted!. I lost it all!. Later I'll write it again!. She truly was a rare and unique person in life who gave so much inspiration to others, and really loved and accepted others as they were!. All these years we had kept in close touch and I had the pleasure of being her friend and trying to give her some inspiration over these last years when she was living in a nursing home!. I hadn't been able to reach her on her phone!. I didn't know she had passed away and kept sending her little gifts!.!.

Poetry!? If something pops into my head with no effort, or the idea of it amuses me, I'll write it down!. I always have to have the urge or inspiration to write rather than agonise over the blank page!. As for watching, I don't much care for reading amateur efforts (in the same way that I don't particularly enjoy amateur theatre or music) unless I know them to be sincere and inspired through personal experience or keen perception!. As for watching the self-appointed critics among them, the "veterans" as it were, well, as just a totally unqualified onlooker, I am often reduced to laughing out loud or cringing at the unconscious arrogance or the self-congratulatory back-slapping or the downright patronising attitudes (under the guise of encouragement) exhibited by some of them!. That must sound cruel - and I am NOT unkind - it's just that I got the urge to say it when the opportunity afforded by your question arose, and simply filled up some blank space writing it down!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
