If I could vote again I would...beautiful addititions.
Your diversity as a writer really shines in every nook and cranny of this site Tyrone. Your BOWs entries...your "Family" contest entries...("Protect my Family", very action packed thriller, and "Mama I'm Home", had me rolling in laughter:)...all of your writing is purely enjoyable.
Good going. Just stopped by to read and say Hi...'Hi'...:)

Poetry...
Good morning Dela,

Thank you for your review of my work. I have published 2 books of poetry, "Under the Melting Pot" and "Poetry E=motion" and poetry is my first passion when it comes to literature.
When I write my stories, the poetry exists but in a different form. It may exist as a snippet of dialogue, complex emotions or the overall theme of the book. I think of e=mc2 and the effects that are caused by actions. Words are powerful and when spoken they can cause reactions that are fueled by those words. I still search for a balance between poetry and prose to release all of the thoughts and ideas that occupy my mind.
After reading your amazing work I wanted to rewrite my own and put more into it. However, as always, I put it in God's hands and I pray that my readers will see what I'm trying to say with clarity.

God bless you Dela and thank you for just being you!!!

Your friend,

Tyrone

Another Revealing Aspect of Writing
I have always regarded Vince to be more of a novelist than a poet. I was wrong. This new book has shown just another thrilling aspect of his versatility as a writer. The title, "Warm Coat of Snow" in itself is yet another example of transposal of imagery. "Eyes that Hear, and Ears that See". But come to think of it even in both the literal
and literary cognition; - of course, snows can be warming,if not then why do foxes hide themselves deep beneath the snow when it becomes bitter cold? There is warmth beneath every perceived cold, real or imaginary. Yes we can gather much strength from our various challenging circumstances and situations in life. Very good thinking.

Averall, I enjoyed reading what you term Poetic Prose; it is a very apt medium in showcasing yet another spiritual depth of the intricacies of human nature, and portraying the omnipresence of our loving creator. Good work. I wonder if you could have done more justice to the topic if you had confined yourself to the limiting aspect of metrical lines and structures of traditional forms. We need more of this stuff often.

Winter memories
I know...those were the days! I look at the photos from those days and wish that I could go back and fully appreciate the people,places and things that are so easily taken forgranted.

I had a black and white picture of my cousin, brother and me standing next to a snowbank that was at least 5 feet high...I remember that day like it was yesterday...if I had a time machine

God bless and thanks for writing,

Tyrone

I COULD RELATE TO THE HARSH WINTER OF 78


I COULD RELATE TO THE MEMORIES OF BACK IN THE DAYS WHEN WINTERS WERE REALLY WINTERS YOU KNOW? I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN UPSTATE N.Y SO WE USED TO GET HIT BY ENDLESS MOUNDS OF SNOW! I MISS THEM DAYS BECAUSE TIMES SEEMD BETTER BACK THEN, MAYBE BECAUSE I WAS A KID AND DID NOT HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITIES I HAVE NOW. THANK YOU FOR WRITING A PIECE THAT MADE ME GO BACK TO THE GOOD OLE DAYS..(IT WOULD BE THE SNOW STORM OF 82 FOR ME!).

GOD BLESS
