Glad to be aboard. I have many interests, such as writing, oil painting, classical music (I play several instruments, my latest--the harp--in preparation for my eventual command performance in heaven). Going on 83 years young, in body and spirit, I'm not packing my suitcase for that destination--or another--yet. Learn more about me and my stuff on https://www.jerrykspoetry.com
Yours, Ali

Hi Ali,

Glad to have you aboard and welcome to MM. Glad you have come to the same conclusion about the Mosaic I came to when I joined a few years ago. The critique is helpful and everyone here tries to make the writer feel comfortable in every post. Not a lot of undeserved back-slapping goes on and very little if any harsh words are ever exchanged. I am (and always have been) an R&M type writer specializing in sonnets, rondeaus and limericks. I did see your post "Stardust" and am working on a few comments mainly dealing with line lengths and word usage. If you desire critiques, place from one to three (*, **, ***) asterisks after the title of your post. One is light, two is medium and three is thorough and concise suggestions to help you polish your piece to perfection.

Anyway, welcome home!

Larry

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
