Ha! Now you're just flattering me ;) Truly it means a GREAT deal to me to hear that, Ann. More than you know...
Looking forward to your next masterpiece.
Best,
Doug.

Definitely deserving as the winning poem this month! Congrats Richard!! While I'll never be able to relate on your vocabulary level, I can certainly join the ranks of the well-described gullible guys in this poem! Thanks for the fun read...
Best,
Doug
Richard is a wonderful writer, he is deep and truthful with humor.
I congratulate him on his writing.
Thank you, Donna, for your well wishes. Your kind comment is also very much appreciated.
Best wishes,
Cynthia
What a clever, inspired and well written poem. I have an on-again, off-again relationship with Bad Habit. I know he's no good for me but the flesh is weak lol.
Doug, you are such a gifted writer and I am loving every one of your poems. I'm so glad you found your way to FFP.
Best wishes,
Cynthia

W-w-wow. This is sad. I am so sorry. I will devote my life to preventing this for anyone else. It is a really good but sad poem though :-} and :^(
I'm a teenager, and this is probably what my grandparents think when I help them.
Dear Tracy,
I hope you get this message I only logged into my account now and see it has been 5 years already. I do hope that your situation has changed and that you are doing better now I cried a lot and strange but true those tears helped me a lot.
I like the way Richard takes us on a journey of blind greed investing and then although he identifies his previous results, will go through it again and again.
Understandable and relatable. Such a common human trait.
Honestly, Doug, every time I read a poem on Family Friends and think 'that's pretty damn good' it seems to be by you. Yet again - well done. Very clever. All the best, Ann
