o poet one
overwhelmed with the single line poem
dear raj
there is a wonderful picture you're trying to paint in the first two lines.I think the poem might benefit from extending it a bit more to clear the whole image. Just my opinion. You know better what you want to say.
Thanks Rula
for reading and commenting. Actually I am trying to write a poem in one or two lines which is my next challenge...it may take a while to reach that goal...

The shortest ever :)
do you think adding 'a' before 'touch' making it clearer or maybe I'm just missing sth there.
Rula
i think i will leave it as is...the message i am trying to bring in is that ...the feeling of touch need not be physical ...even without it one can be touched...reflecting in the eyes and the heart....even tears of joy or sadness touch the one who causes them...hope it holds this in the one liner...

can I suggest raj..when a guy /woman is in ntense grief
(''A touch on the shoulders speaks volumes till eternity, he/she touched me..."")
just one line
I avoid using "guy" in a poem
I avoid using "guy" in a poem as far as possible...thanks for the read Lovedly..
....................................
in the west ''guy''(s) is a common refrain
for any sex
yes but I did not use t in the one line poem
Thanks for your reading and reply with kindness
need not say
tolerance
thanks raj
Hi raj
one power packed line; this is far stronger than the original.
Tyro
