RE: Some Thoughts on Translation, Poetry, and Steemit

This thread is worthy of becoming a new post! I don't want to appropriate your learning and insights by posting it all myself, but if it brings attention to two great poets of Steemit, two great souls, I might dare.
Love this: Those transactions, whether intentional or not define who we end up becoming.
Yahia, good to see you again!! Somehow in all the busy-ness of #freewritehouse (I seldom venture far from there, or from #dailypetphotography), I miss out on so many of my favorite Steemians. Like @quillfire. Must get out more!

Sort:  

Carol, I miss ya! Good to hear from you, 'ole friend, and one more reason to be grateful to @hlezama and his sensitivity as a reader and human. I, especially, appreciate the analogy of literature as family and, as he eloquently puts it: "With some relatives we feel closer, we identify better, we become them as they become us."

Thank you, for stopping by and sharing where you're at. Also, please, feel free to share anything you like from my page :)

Much Love <3 Buds.jpg

Thank you - I'll visit your page now!
I rely too much on hashtags, e.g. #freewrite or #freewritehouse, and minutes/hours just get funneled away with reading, commenting, posting, hyperlinking/formatting. As good citizens we're to volunteer and upvote and esteem each other - and as writers (aka, typically loners), we run out of time and energy after investing too much of it in everyone else's work. But your poems are lovely, always, and your insightful comments are worthy of being posts, not comments, and now I'm off to visit your Steemit wall. :)
