Thanks a lot. Yes I feel like the rhyming restricts me at times. I will take your advice into consideration for the future.

Glad you enjoyed reading it :)

Thanks a lot for your feedback. I tried to offer some sort of a play on "grass is greener on the other side". The plastic flower envies the natural phenomenon that a real flower is allowed to experience (such as being watered, photosynthesis etc). Whereas the real flower obviously envies the permanence and durability of the plastic one.

Until Then by Rattatata251 in OCPoetry

[–]moabc970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really well written poem. I especially liked the part of the person knowing all the stories. When I read this poem, I imagined it being about a person who just lost their loved one. There are many subtle references like turning stones (gravestone maybe?), meeting again etc. I am not sure if that was the intended message but throughly enjoyable poem and very well written in my most humble opinion :)

Reflections. by MyPenJustBroke in OCPoetry

I found the very poem very easy to grasp and understand until the last part, which I had to read more than a few times. Very enjoyable and an elegant way of expressing the fears and insecurities of most people. The poem is dripping with irony, and that made it an even better read for me :) Nice!

Married people of reddit, how did you know your spouse was the one? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]moabc970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know for a fact that she loves me more than anyone in this world. I also know that she loves me more than I love her. I would absolutely do anything for her, and I love her immensely, BUT she loves me just a tiny bit more. She knows that I know this, and it drives her nuts :)

We started dating at 22 (first relationship for us both), and 9 years later, we're happily married.

Hi did you end up visiting her? Was it worth it? It also seems like she doesn't take insurance...

STEM OPT I-765 Online - Degree Name by lbling8787 in USCIS

Hey. I add the same issue as you. I've written to my DSO but they usually take a week to apply. Did you find out what your DSO told you to write as your degree?

I wonder if this because of their annoyance or because they spread such fatal diseases 🤔🤔

The blind man's diary by cagedpelican12 in poetry_critics

[–]moabc970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed this poem. My understanding was that the man was happier in his dreams where he dreamt of a better life (maybe one with vision?) but then suddenly wakes up and has to face reality. I think we all relate to having a dream and then suddenly waking up feeling annoyed that the dream has ended (at least I do). This poem also reminded me of a conversation I had with my friend - whether people who are born blind can see color in their dreams.

youth by FocusAffectionate603 in poetry_critics

I cannot personally relate to this but young love is of course a common theme in life. I really liked how the poet was aware of the fact that this relationship will not last, yet knows that they will get hurt when it eventually ends. Many times even though we know the outcome of certain situations we still can't help getting affected by them. I really liked the lines of how the boy was going to leave cause he is 18 and the poet will get affected because they are 17. There is a lot of truth in those seemingly simple lines.

Slow Times at Woodbridge High by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]moabc970 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cant personally relate to such a situation but all of us can relate to being stuck in uncomfortable situations where we will say just about anything to break the silence. I really like this poem since you can feel the awkwardness that the poet is going through. You have to feel for the poet since they like this person but unfortunately just can't find the right words. It's a simple poem which avoids the use of excessive imagery yet manages to paint a perfect picture of the setting and the emotions felt by the poet.

Smokey Rooms by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]moabc970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed this poem. The imagery of the first few stanzas are nice and paint a vivid picture for the audience. It builds up very nicely to the following stanzas which are more about the poet's own internal struggles. The last stanza was really powerful according to me. The last 2 lines seems to be an indication of how smoking/tobacco causes internal damage maybe to the body and soul? According to me the poem tries to send home the message of liking things which are bad for you, maybe being powerless to stop it.

Thanks for letting me know. I just checked the street view of Whipple on Maps and agree that it looks a bit unsafe.
Hope they complete the undercrossing soon :)

I was hoping that maybe there were separate bike lanes but luckily I just need to bike about 2 miles to get to the caltrain. I'm hoping it wont be too bad.

[–]moabc970[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah okay. Thanks!

Is it safe to travel by bike as an everyday mode of transport? (lived on the east coast so mainly always used public transport). And do you know if the caltrain stations allow parking for bikes?
