Thank you for sending me your poem..I went to the website to finish readng..I really love your writing..I was going to comment on it on that website but for some reason it won't open for me so I thought I would write you a note to let you know..I also read your Home Page...very powerful writing and it hit home for me..I hear and see the truth in your writings and those that came befor you...I have gratitude that your on this planet at the same time I am..its all about the "soul's food"....I read something that Sharkria wrote in her book "Woman Full Of Grace"..she had said that its her blood that speaks to her about where her people come from where her true roots come from even though she was born in Columbia but her desire to belly dance and sing writing her own music, she was made fun of in school....she is loved all over the world..when she goes to Lebanon, they truly welcome her for that is her true roots..Columbia was put to shame for casting her out but now on bended knee nail to her...alot of thoughful soulful people come from there..people that really look deeper into life what this rite of passage having to face life in its truth!!!!
I would love to go back to your website where your writing are stored and read ..very sobering writing..thank you dear friend..blessings

Subject:your poem
Message:
Hi Shant,
You are so experssive when yo write.
I felt like the poem was talking about a love who kept coming into your life, then runnuing away wheneverr it go too close. It was like the person teased you, then crept away, not wanting to reveal their true feelings, maybe even lying about them themself (the thief reference). It was really good.
I did have one concern though. In the last stanza, the first few lines speak of the lust that is there that should be met, but the final line speaks of the divine children that will come from this. I see lust as entirely sexual, not love like. For this reason, I have tripped over the mention of children as children and lust do not belong together. They should be born of love, not lust. That is the only thing i didnt like. The rest is fantastic.
Let me know your thoughts on that
take care
Gail
Thank you.....your poetry is very touching, sad, beautiful, real. It is my pleasure to be your friend. I believe we have met before. You look so familiar. Maybe it is your poetry that I know you from.

Hi, Shant N:
I hope this note finds you well and in good spirits. I just wanted to properly acknowledge your friendship. I don't want too much time to go by without me doing so. I can get really busy from time to time. But, I won't take our friendship for granted.
I lived long enough to know that friendship is one thing you can't put a pricetag on; yet, it's one of the most valuable things in the world one can possess. So, I'll take this moment to tell you:
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS!!! And, I feel so honored you chose to be my friend.
Just maybe, we can develop a relationship that lasts a lifetime. I'll do my very best to stay in touch. I'll talk to you soon. Take it easy & keep it good!

Dear Shant,
I like your daily poem! It speaks to me of such positive hope. I like how you spoke of your childhood in a positive way and your use of color to convey your feelings. And your choice of adjectives to describe your feelings. For instance, fragnant newborns, cracked green walnuts and little orange flame are all very good at envoking a feeling. When I read your poems, I am so aware of the power each word has to convey meaning. I hope my feedback helps you. I wish I was better able to convey what I feel when I read your poems.
I was reading your biography and noticed you studied Electrical Engineering My oldest son is studying that right now.
Have a good day and take care!

Message:
I have been fairly busy good if that makes sense. All good though. I just got done reading your poem about You and I. Wow I really love it! Speaking of so many things, but also speaks for it's self in a way. Beautifully written, and yet the meaning can be taken in 2 great ways. For friendships or for lovers, and for war or peace. In other words for the first meaning, we meet up with so many people everyday. We can choose to be friends or to help other in anyway that we can when one maybe troubled in their life. The world is rough and cruel, just being there for someone can make a big change. Just showing a bit of love to one that may need can mean the world to them. It may seem like a big step to one, but only be a small step for you and I. The second meaning is that we have a choice on how we live our lives. We can live it by joining in gangs or living our lives in dealing drugs etc, or we can live in unity. Joining together and spreading love more for the world to see that there is more to life than fighting against one another. There are so many that live around us that choose war, but why when peace, joy, happiness,friendship is the greatest high that anyone could have, and all natural too.
I love all your poems, they are all lovely and well written. If all possible could you please send the poems that you have for the day to my messages here on tagged. There are some days that comments get over loaded on my page, and I may not see where you sent a poem or not. Really just don't want to miss one, they are really great. You have a great and wonderful talent, and I am so happy that you are sharing them with me.
Have a wonderful day

Hello,
I have been sick with the flu but feeling better now. I hope you are doing well.
I love your poems,they are so close to my life. Like I said the one about the dog really hit home. I miss her so much.We had never been seperated. No one understood that bond and then I read that poem and knew you understood.
The last one is very beautiful also. You have a wonderful gift.Thank you for sharing with me.
Your friend,
Majik

My friend,
I am very impressed with your writings. I enjoyed your short story and was moved by the sensitivity of your soul regarding the ancient land of your ancestors. It is also obvious that your family left for you a rich heritage of many admirable qualities including an amazing talent.
I will continue to read and enjoy the poetry on your website and will display some of them on my profile for others to read and enjoy.
Thank you so much for sharing.

Dear friend,
I just finished reading your poem, "Once We Were So Pure" Your poem reminded me of my childhood. I liked the way you used nature to portray your feelings, especially the line about the frogs, crickets and rain putting you to sleep. And also the image of the seed and the mud.
Thank you for sharing your poems with me! Have a good day and take care!

Thankyou, that link worked fine..... I have just read a few of your poems, and I am in awe at your talent and depth of feeling. You empathise so strongly in some that I could feel the pain in them.. I will read more, but not now. .I have read only a few of your works from 2002, but you have reached a part of my being with your words, that feels deeply the suffering of others. I hate wars. The cruellest creature on this planet is man and he is cruellest to his own kind. I am so pleased to find that there are people like yourself in this world who see and record not just the beautiful things, but the truth. God bless you and thankyou for being my friend, It is a great honour for me.... Khadija

Message:
I have just finnished reading"Reqium For Iraq" a second time, and I went on and read "Cold Are Thier Souls' I am shattered!! You have the greatest gift to be able to express things thus. The reading of your words tears my heart. I stopped many times to cry, as I have cried for the people of Palestine, and Iraq and everywhere the kings of greed and cruelty have sacrificed the innocent. I have seen most of the photos you have with the poem, and far worse!. Sometimes I feel that humankind are just a blight on this earth, at least the ones who hold power anyway. The truth rings so loud and clear in the second poem also. So much of what you say is how I feel when I look at the rape of this earth and it's people. I know that Iraqi women have been pushed back more than a hundred years in thier freedom. They cannot go out alone anymore or they could be raped by American troops, this is terrible,The children have died in thier thousands from cancers caused by the bombs carrying depleted uranium.and then the shocking embargo of the very drugs that could have given them a chance There is only one country who mass produces and uses weapons of mass destruction to such a devastating scale, and that is the US.
On a lighter note, I have a little Long legged Jack Russell Terrier. he got me through the final breakdown of my marriage and also through the seperation and divorce. He is my best mate. To an Australian a mate is a friend whom you realy love and respect, and would die for if need be. I can tottally relate to your dogs attitude of allowing you to share thier bed.. I hope you feel suitably Honoured.. I have a feeling that you do... My little dog has trained me very well. I can even understand some of his commands and my reward for this and for being his doting servant is unconditional love and the priveledge of his company and being allowed a little room in the Queen sized bed in the front bedroom.
I am going to gradually read all the poems on your site. I will now go back the the earliest ones there. I believe that poetry is the expression of a souls journey through life and I want to follow the steps yours has taken thus far.
Thankyou so much for sharing this part of yourself. and keep up walking this road even though I know it must be terribly painful for you at times. I have heard no other who could express themslves and thier time better.
I am very proud to be your friend.......... Khadija

Hi my friend, how are you??
I will pray so much you to find more beautiful words to continue writing. I liked this poem. It´s a fact that anybody prays for anyone. This world has become terrible because of people don´t take care of the wonderful things GOD gave us to enjoy. You can see how men are destroying the nature and killing our animals. GOD IS REALLY MAD because of this. I hope that goodness touches the hearts of men and knowledge touches the mind of the people in this world, because it could be too late !!!
Congratulations for your poem.!!!!

O Shant,
I am amazed at how deeply your poems affect my soul. You put into words what I feel about life. What would my life be without music? Many years ago, I played the flute, as did my mother, and oh yes, the flute is such a special instrument. Your words nourish me and remind me of the sweet goodness of life.

Thank you my dear friend. You are very kind and I look forward to that day and to reading your book. God knew you had much to offer the world with your kindness and your words. It breaks my heart to even think of what your Grandmother must have gone through as well as the others. This heartbreak shows through your eyes...though they are warm and smiling, I still see it. I hope our friendship can erase at least a little of it. I want you to know that I feel the same way when I hear from you. It always lifts my spirits to see you have left me a message. Take care my dear friend and thank you for being my friend. I feel truly blessed.
