BYE BYE

Short poem but personal... Please read the letter bellow...

Blessed and touched by you I leave
Yet, as I logout I wonder if I have more to give
Eternity seems short when end is near

Bye now I say it shy but with no fear

Best times travel fast, but
Your reviews and work will forever last, as I'm
Exchanging future with the past

    Bye Bye now and farewell, salute me back and ring that bell!

Note for Reviewers :

                 The symbol of "exchanging future with the past" is used to say that I'm exchanging my future here of writing and reviewing with the past (to only be a memory)... I don't know you may find that symbol silly...
                 The symbol of the bell is even for joy or sorrow depending how you see things...

Dear brothers and sisters in humanity,
I've enjoyed a journey here, a journey of creativity, a creativity inspired by you all, you all have made me a better man in a ways I can't describe in this short letter, I've chosen to join this letter to a poem I've wrote yesterday on the way home to thank you and to say to you goodbye and farewell...
Now I'm leaving a better man than I was when signing up here for sure but I'm always looking to improve myself and to establish a harmony with my environment and for that I've decided to free more of my time that's why I'm leaving this precious website, a website I've enjoyed, a website I hope that I've left a fingerprint on the way it left a fingerprint on me...
I cannot but salute each and every poetic soul living on our dear and beloved planet for poetry is a bless, a bless that may turn into a curse but I trust your wiseness and self-control to use this blessed but yet dangerous weapon well, and I must notice you that you hold a great responsibility in your hands witch is the pen and the ink on it...
Spend your ink the way you spend your blood, wisely and carefully, for a word can change a world, and a word can change you!
Words such as "freedom" "rights" "wealth" "power" "death" ...etc... has changed our history in several occasions for that I beg your caution using the words that god has blessed you with...
I may return next week, tomorrow or next year but for now what's for sure is that I'm leaving and that today is my last here, for that I'll try to keep my reviews promises...
In the end may Allah (god) bless you all, and may his peace and mercy be upon you all
Peace and love

Ouciano

P.S. : if you want to keep in touch with me send me your e-mail or MSN...
I'll also leave my profile and "work" for you as a "memory"...
Thank you
Peace!

Normally, I give an elaborate analysis of a poem, but in this case, my review is a sheer response to your final day of Writers Cafe. "Bye Bye" is a touching farewell for each person you have come into contact with. Even though I have come to recently know of your work and reviews, I feel that you have left an imprint which has impacted greatly. In a sense, you as a writer and a reviewer have succeeded in your aspirations of the "family company", and you are now retiring for a journey that has not been taken as of yet. I am surprised that reviews have not confronted the question: Why choose to leave the site for an extended period of time? I am wondering that myself, but your letter gives us all we need to know. Wherever your endeavors, I hope you will succeed, which I do not doubt that you will. Overall, I feel as though you have left on a contented note; composed of the emotion in an exquisite ruin. Each of us will remember you, and I hope to see your return. In my view, gathering knowledge and wisdom from all sources is continuous, and it only reaches its end when you have passed on.
