The Riddle Of Poetry.com Awards



It was my practice for the past few months,
To jot down one or two couplets,
These were being posted in the poetry.com,
I was regularly contributing to this site.

       Suddenly I felt that I am losing touch,
       I am being denied the faculty to think,
       To think, to dream and to imagine things,
       Which helped me tilldate to write few lines.

Or is it the fault of Poetry.com,
Which assures a lot of rewards,
You earn so and so points, and,
You will get appropriate rewards.

       But once you attain to these levels,
       You write to them for feed back,
       Poetry.com is unresponsive and silent,
       Is this a ploy to discourage people..?
