Never thought I'd ask but...

    Ok, my latest poem "My Christmas Tree" had two '5' ratings... now, some idiot has gone and given it a one, when I truly don't think it deserves that low a mark. It's not only that someone gave it a one (or that my rating has dropped from 4.8 to 4.7) it's because I am unsure of what people think of it now.

    So, in short, I would really appretiate some honest feedback and ratings. Never thought I'd ask this.
    Thanks, and please help me out- I WILL comment definetely on anyones poem that helps me out.

    Thanks so much Morgan Boyd... :) I truly am grateful for your vote, comment and of course your critism. I'm sorry that you have also had a few '1's on your poems... the ones I've read and commented didn't deserve it.

    Thanks to ALL of you for the positive feedback :D honestly, it's great to get it all. I wish that people that posted 1's would actually comment, not to know who they are, but just to know WHY, if there is a reason at all.

    I don't think I've given anyone lower than a three either, and if I don't like a poem for some reason, I'd most likely leave a comment not a vote. Though many people can't take critism.

    Yeah. Honest comments are always the best comments to recieve in my opinion.

    Definetely... if I never was given any critism I'm sure I'd be writing dull and predictable poems with no schemes. Though I still got a lot of improving to do :P

    Yeah, I guess most poets on this site are still trying to improve their writing (not that I believe they need to, just for personal gain).

    I'm trying to improve so I can one day look at all my older poems, and see the difference. I will never be a proffessional poet, but I definetely want to keep the same passion I have for it now.

    Yeah, I posted my yahoo in another conversation with you and Comet.
