RE: Connecting Singles

I love the way to define this CS. Very well put together and explained in a way others could not see or understand.

The fall leaves are still holding on, lots of orange and yellow out there yet.

RE: If I Could Question Love.

I carved Tiffany today, I also cut my finger which is only appropriate since she is pretty bad in the movie Bride of Chucky.

Poetry Corner Challenge.

Thanks Carlamee for the musical link,
I'm going around all day humming the tune in my head.

RE: Autumn"s love

Many thanks Lily for joining the challenge,
It's good to stir up some poetic activity...
I think your Autumnal poem is one of your best poems so far on the corner,

" It is autumn, my friend!
Only the boulevard lamp is in bloom ,
On cast iron branches
Illuminating the darkness."

This is beautiful imagery. I also know that there is deep meaning in your metaphors.
Take care Lily,
Mick.

RE: Love

Great poem Laura. You've described perfectly what family love should feel like, no matter what age the members are.
Another very worthy addition to the Love challenge.

Thanks for your entry.
Regards Mick.

RE: Love

Many thanks for taking up the gauntlet Happychatty,
You are so right that we experience love in so many forms....not just with a partner.
I enjoyed reading your poem.

Ho Carlamee,

Forgive me if I placed you in an awkward position by asking you for a love poem. It's sad to hear that you haven't found " The One"
in your life. But you come across as being a strong woman of principle and nobody's fool.
Never say never. Thank you for your indepth reply, its appreciated.

Best wishes,
Mick.

Hi Carlamee,
I know this challenge will be tough for some,
I'm just trying to inject some activity into the Poets Corner.
What about sharing a Carlamee love story ?

Regards Mick.

RE: Where is your love , God?

Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.
Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?
Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?
Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.
Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,
That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?
Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great?
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,
Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?
By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?
Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;
To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?
Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?
Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?
The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.
Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?
Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?
Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee?
Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee, Here we are?
Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart?
Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven,
When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together?
Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions,
When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait?
Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.

RE: Connecting Singles

Hi Carlamee,

At the time of posting this comment you have 74 views and 2 replies. There are so many members here who just don't get involved, which is very sad really as you have opened up the perfect topic for discussion.
I think one needs to be very impartial here and not carry any expectations. I found some lovely on-line friends here that I value greatly,
And I like the Poetry corner very much.
This is a good post and I hope it encourages more feedback.

Mick.

RE: Connecting Singles

Much depends upon motives why people are here in this zoo. In theory this zoo and its noble intentions to create a place for people to correspond and to learn about cultural points of view is probably why they created this site. Nevertheless, it's to each individual responsibility and choice who they want to play with.

Since there is no monetary investment made by individuals their incentive is diminished and hence, nobody is going to put much effort in chasing after anyone to form relationships especially intimate or otherwise.

This site is pretty much filled with miserable bitchy middle aged divorced women who are jilted over past failed relationships along with the scammers whose only motive is to get whatever they can from vulnerable hard luck losers who can't get a real girl up close and personal.

Nevertheless, we are all here for personal reasons and motives. If people can't learn to get along with one another sitting 1000 to 11000 miles away imagine the chaos in the same room 11 ft away.

One thing that would cause this site to fail faster is if everyone had to take a personality test before signing up. Or everyone would be matched within groups that would match their personality.

If that being the case the largest filled category would probably be the personality disorder group.
