    Default Musings.

    No that it matters but my liking to keep things straight I am posting my personal stats from my Poetry site.
    Now here is how it goes IMHO, anybody can write poetry, however, how good that poetry is or is not is an
    entirely different matter.
    A very good poet and friend from my poetry site told me this.
    "Robert , never doubt your talent, I have two books published with over a sixty poems published and you are a far better poet than I. I mean that sincerely. Remember this my friend, they steal your poetry because its very good and they realize that fact. You have poetry published but not yet a book of your own. My friend I suggest you consider correcting that error. Just keep on writing, let the stupid naysayers bellow all they want."

    A couple months ago I had considered not writing any more and his private message to me turned me around.
    In life , we ALL must face the naysayers and just say NAY right back to them..
    Stubbornness , I lay great claim to, back by past evidence but greatness I make no claim to.
    I simply write..... -Tyr

    Latest contest judged and results posted today ......

    Poem-Blue Eyes That Her Glory Reflects
    Place- 5th
    Contest Name-THROUGH YOUR EYES
    Finished- Yes
    Date- 6/21/2015 12:00:00 AM
    A 5th place finish so my number went up one to 82 top ten wins.
    Great contest , great entries by some very fine poets and published authors.
    Placing fifth out of 35 entries is good methinks. The problem was the contest required the poem to be 25 words or less!
    I rarely ever write short poems and 25 words is a very, very short poem..
    Still, I have no complaint about the results.....-Tyr

    My warmest congratulations, Robert!!!
    Indifferent alike to praise or blame
    Give heed, O Muse, but to the voice Divine
    Fearing not injury, nor seeking fame,
    Nor casting pearls to swine.

    My current record at my poetry home. I recently bought a Lifetime membership there ...
    They are stuck with me and many surely do not like that, as I present far too
    much truth in my poems for their tender and blinded souls to ever stomach! Which was
    another reason why I decided to buy the Lifetime membership! -Tyr
