Hey ya Rick, I was looking over my favs and came along this old poem of yours. Which leads me to ask you, are you going to make more videos for other poems you wrote? I hope so, they are always really good, especially to the narrative of your voice.
This has happened with the house I grew up in.....and it breaks my heart. Noone there....won't sell.....five children family raised there, mom gone in heaven now and noone to care for the house or pay its mortgage. This was a touching video.....touches home...literally.
This is beautiful...haunting. Elements of sadness and the cruelty life can carry for individuals, as it progresses - perceptive. I like it! Leaving it open is good - leaves us to bring our own worlds to the poem in a way that is meaningful to us. well done, sir :)
Im speechless....YOU ARE AMAZING! ha...i love it! your incredible. i love you haha. Great job...excellent. Featurette material...lol. Good job hun...ur great =] ha
I was afraid to put my stuff like this on YT because of that reason! But YT saves the exact dates and I have all of the poem mailed to me from myself...so all the dates are taken care of etc. =D So anyone who would try to steal poetry on this site would just be making a stupid mistake!
I'll be posting another one by Monday...so keep checking in. Thanks so much Ariel.
oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!! if this was not so stunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnning.... loved this!!!!!!i realllllllllly love this so much so, thank you for sending me this!
It was sad. But that's how poetry is most of the time. Yaya writes poetry too. You did a good job on that one. Sometimes it's difficult to keep the rhyming in such a long poem, so good job. The video was cool too, it fit the poem well.
It's a beautiful poem, and the video is great. You recite it with the same love for the poem that the house has for the people, I feel. Absolutely smashing. This is what YT should be about. :)
Ricky, this was an execellent piece, very intersting. I could definaly feel the emoitions. You are indeed a great writer/ poet. continue with this. From a writer to a writer, Bravo my friend, Bravo.
This lovely, you are an excellent writer and poet. I am almost speechless here, I could feel the loneliness that this engendered and how abandoned one can feel. You are very talented and I thank you for sharing you gift with us.
i just realized i'm actually a published poet, and i went to state competition in high school in forensics and took 2nd place. that's how i earned my varsity letter.
i'm a poet as well, i have books of poetry i've written over the years. you've inspired me to dig into those books and make a few poetry videos. nice work btw! sad, but so many are. thank you for sharing this with us ricky.
It's a house.

I have a class poetry project and I've started to hate it, but this reminded me that poetry can be witty, smart, thoughtful, humorous, and wise.
Thanks for changing my thoughts! That was awesome!

I loved this. Is it a family home, or just one you know? I love the feeling of defiance and faded strength you have through this.
Good thing putting more poetry on YT. The world needs it.
