| What I have... to give you
Posted: 5/24/2009 5:36:44 AM | To be honest with you,
I do not have the words to make you feel better -
But I do have arms to give you a hug -
I have ears to listen to anything
you want to talk about -
I have eyes to see the pain you are going through -
I have feet, to walk to you the minute you need me -
And I have a heart -
a heart that is aching to see you smile again. | |

Posted: 5/25/2009 5:28:53 PM | I liked the first poem the best of the three on this page.
It was spontaneous, not overwrought, it was honest, made lots of sense. It was the anguished devotion of a mother I would say for her schizophrenic son. I don't know if that's the case, but if you were my mother, it would be. You were not fanatically trying to explain anything or frantically convice the reader of some "higher" truth. It was a beautiful poem, indeed.
I liked that it was what Zen expected from her students when she set her hut on fire. She asked them to say exactly what she wants to hear, otherwise she'll make herself perish there.
The students, when they saw the flames, screamed ancient truths put to verse, they screamed Zen's quotes, and were at a loss for words. A latecoming student showed up. She asked, "What's the commotion", and someone hastily explained it to her. The latecomer screamed, "Oh, my god!" at which point Zen emereged from her burning hut, much to the delight of her pupils.
You were not philosophical, you were not testign anything, you were not Zen ; you were the pupil who said exactly what there could be to say, thereby saving Zen, and thus becoming Zen. | |

Who are you? The original copyright police?
Everywhere I read, there you pop up accusing people of trying to profit from other people's work.
I think you might be a little over-suspicious, if not paranoid.
Do the people using these gems attempt to sign their names? Are you paying them to view this stuff? Chill.
When someone sends you a hallmark card, do you grill them about whether they created the verse involved themselves?
I mean, do you think that people appreciate what you are doing? Has anyone thanked you?
Get a clue!!! | |

Thanks iiCeiiCe, I appreciate it. Almost nothing offends me more than someone attempting to pass off the words written by another, as their own. | |

Posted: 6/7/2009 10:31:56 PM | Raxxar..... what are you boinking the op??? why else would you be so hot on someone who plagiarizes....
and actually people have thanked me for pointing out that she has not written her posts... I highly doubt Maya Angelou or a Buddhist priest would come to claim their writings... but credit needs to go where it is due....
overly suspicious would mean I was wrong about my post.... but I have been able to say where she has gotten what was written.... which stealing/taking credit for others works is a crime... even if it goes unfound.... and I think I have more than a clue.... since I knew of the posted works... as for everywhere you read?? wow.... only read a couple threads huh???
jeeez.... good luck getting that date now....  | |

I appreciate what iiceiice did. It is not nice to claim authorship even of a poem of unknown author. It is like stealing, but more than just gold or silver; it is like stealing the soul of the original poet and claiming ownership over it.
Yes, I thank iiceiice for pointing out when such a theft happens.
I wrote a nice critique about the poem, and I thanked the person who (it looks like falsely) claimed authorship. I hope she realizes that this is not a thing to do, and I hope she will not do it again. It is not anger I write to her with, and it is not punishment I want to dish out. I just want to tell her that if she does it again -- here, on PoF, or in a completely different site or situation -- she always runs the risk of being shown that she has stolen the authorship. So please, do not do this again. | |
