Dears Maria, Sinome, Calia, FSI, Merk,

What wonderful feedback. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It gives me further encouragement to publish my first poetry book. The title is not yet definitized...Merkie's comment reflects closest to what I am thinking. I shall look forward to more feedback as we all move along together hand in hand. Thanks again.

Ash my friend

Whilst the title is certainly 'different' does it really do justice to the contents?? This needs a little thought so I will take a rain check and come back should I come up with any 'inspiration'! In the meantime the best of luck with your first book my friend; many blessings and thanks

I am so proud of you!!!!  and I agree with Calia in that  the title you are toying with does not reflect the wisdom and depth of your poetry... I would think  that,  if you want to infere that its out of this world poetry... you could play with words like "rainbow of words" or "words rainbow"  but  since you usually just gave us wisdom in very simple terms... something like "The Essence of a smile"   or perhaps : Wisdom as poetry"  ... Uh Uh... I got it  "The poetry of Life choices"  I don't know,  I like that last one but ultimately it is you that must name your baby... :-)  Good luck!!!!!

I like the idea!  I don't know about the title, though, I'll be honest with you.  All of your poetry is very uplifting and encouraging, while being interlaced with pearls of moral wisdom.  I don't really feel like "Reflections on a Spaceship" quite captures that essence.  It is an enticing title, to be sure, is there a story behind it?  Hmmm, one of the girls calls you her "Desert prince", right?  I'm thinking maybe "Pearls from the Desert" or something like that.  Just my first thoughts, I've got this whole Genie from the lamp offering an open seashell with a pearl in it motif running through my head now.  Anyway, best of luck on getting published!  Will this be your first book?

Re: What sort of poems are you wanting to put in the book?

Raphael, they'll mostly be selected from the ones that I've already posted here on blogit in the past.

I do like that title. If I see something from someone else that I find to be a better fit or come up with something I'll let you know.

After over two years of fun writing poetry,

I felt this might be a good thing to do.
