Haha! I get it, good work :p This is Ricky. In case I didn't make things right before, sorry for getting all crotchy and such when ** went down way back when with Ryan.

this is VERY good. the first two stanzas and the second to last one, especially ~ classic lieschen, t'was great. :) "bottles sparkled in the dim light" ~ awesome line, very vivid.

billows of steam out the door
shouts of a fight on the grass
nothing made me move
from your arms

that's my favorite stanza, it feels timeless. nice piece, kudos. :)

I don't get the joke, but I love your style--great job on this!

This was pretty nice. I'm not from Saskatchewan, though, so I guess I didn't get the joke. =) Good work, though... Happy New Year, too.

Well, I didn't get the joke but I'm Caucasian, so that might explain it.
I still liked the poem, though. Oh, and don't worry. I'm not going to stop writing. I just need some time to improve my craft. But you are really very sweet to say I'm the best writer on the site. That did brighten my day quite a bit. Thank you.
