Those Empty Comment Boxes Poem by Panagiota Romios

Those Empty  Comment Boxes

Somedays, I hunt for those only.
I wonder if the ignored poet is
sad or lonely.

It's easy to acknowledge the
big hitters here!
I know every poet would prefer
a smile to a tear.

Call me silly, but  I don't like to 
comment to only the best.
Each poet is worthwhile and by 
posting...passed a test.

So to those empty comment boxes,
I now depart.
Where comments are nil or few.

Each poet here contributed
his or her due!
Their hearts enclosed in an unknown
poem to you.

*Dedicated to all poets~new or ignored. 
True poets do not pen with the goal of being adored."
