| Posted by Alison McKenzie on 08/07/08 at 02:33 AM Wow, George. This is just exquisite. |
| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 08/07/08 at 12:22 PM George. this poem waxing philosophic, subtly captivates the pupils threading on its every stanza. to me it is as good as Maxwell House's claim of their cuppa joe being good to the last drop. this poem is certainly though provoking and delightful to the senses, enough to wish to lap its dregs. |
| Posted by Laurie Blum on 08/07/08 at 02:15 PM What a way to look at the choices we make... this is a very thought-provoking poem. |

| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 08/08/08 at 02:06 AM I like this more each time I read it. |
| Posted by Jessica A Steenbock on 08/08/08 at 03:22 AM I read today what I could not write... I like this and I think we all feel this way for the most part. I take solace in this knowing that I am not the only one... |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 08/09/08 at 05:01 AM I can hear Kevin Spacey speaking this in "American Beauty" sfter he goes through why he has a 1970 red Firebird and then after saying "I rule" he narrates your words as he ponders his marriage to Annette Bening. Great lines. |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 08/09/08 at 05:04 AM Or, in the same movie when he realizes he can't "take advantage" of the teenage American Beauty you hear these lines as reality strikes and he ponders his marriage you hear these words... |
| Posted by Marjorie Anne Reagan on 08/10/08 at 01:56 AM It is important to be realist and see all the colors of the spectrum even the dark ones to appreciate the daily miracle of love.
Beautiful and true. |

were all you saw
the question
never rose until
the paths appeared
and those not taken
would not return"
Amazing! |
| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 08/13/08 at 11:59 AM "Like trying to relive a life that has yet to end/but might as well have." That's my Hope diamond in this gem of a poem, and I'm holding on to it. Amazing work, George! |

| Posted by Joan Serratelli on 03/05/09 at 03:45 PM Very thought provoking write. We all have to live with the choices we make and realize that we cannot change the past- e can only learn from it! Great readd and write! |
