Comments on: 3WW - The Corridor http://meeaugraphie.com/2007/08/22/3ww-the-corridor/ All about me, my words, that is!

<i>doors, one after the other, that housed expectant hearts

that waited… and waited… and waited…
and no one came
but those in starched uniforms
and tired smiles.</i>

That’s beautiful, wistful, and sad. I don’t think it’s important if you left one of the three words out :) It’s about being inspired, even if just one word inspires you, and writing. And you did that well.


Thank you, Bone. Left our words? Me? Becoming a habit isn’t it….

The first one really touched me. Honestly, although I knew you were trying to connect with the reader with your comments in between each poem, they somehow interrupted the feelings each poem evoked. However, I have a feeling that each interjection is a reflection of your own feelings, especially when you said: "A smile must come in a corridor." It made me feel that you needed the smile. I hope your work brought a smile to YOUR face, Marcia. :)</p> <em>It did put a smile on my face, Liz... and you are right about not adding the remarks, I almost didn't... It dawned on me that this is a poetry/fiction site and most readers are writers and should understand anyway....</em> I agree with TC. The first one really touched me.

It did put a smile on my face, Liz… and you are right about not adding the remarks, I almost didn’t… It dawned on me that this is a poetry/fiction site and most readers are writers and should understand anyway….

TC - I have to admit, I don’t always realize if I have used them or not, sometimes I truly try to pay attention, but once words start in my head, I have little conscious control of them.

This is just so nice, so happy that you can't help but smile as well. It did have a sense of foreboding in the last two lines.</p> <em>I'm glad you smiled, Ther.

I’m glad you smiled, Ther. It is a bit foreboding that the innocence of youth is lost, whether early or in normal time, I think.
