Rene L Bennett's Profile:
If you come here thinking you're going to read alot of happy, life is great, I couldn't ask for more, then you have come to the wrong place to read. I write alot of angst and come to think of it, I always have for alot of years. I think that is why I am a writer.I have these feelings inside my mind and soul so deep it seems I just can't reach deep enough to scratch them. I have always been a deep thinker and always searching for answers to the unknown. At an early age of writting, I had alot of questions. Questions about life and it's mysteries. These past three years, since my family died at the same time, I write alot about my grief. Though I am growing in the grief process, I feel I will always have a yearning for my lost loved ones and I will always write to them the rest of my life. It is my release so I can breath again and go on with life. My writings are more of a healing process for myself. Pen and paper are my best friends and have never let me down yet. I do have 2 grown sons which I am extremely proud of. They are the only family I have now and they are my life.

Whispers of TruthJames C. HorakJames, This is great! Your first 2 stanzas put me exactly where I am, in winterland. Brrr. My puppy is about 5 months old and I seem to have to take him outside quite often (him being so small) and everytime I go outside, I see and feel your poem here. Especially as I stated, the 1st 2 stanzas. Seriously, as I read this, I felt myself standing outside in the cold again..lol Always, Rene'2007-12-07 00:17:37
The AwakeningDebbie SpicerDebbie, I love your imagery here. Here lately when reading other peoples poetry, I seem to get lost in the imagery and read with awe at the beauty that I see most people pen. You are no exception. Rene'2007-12-07 00:14:51

Sparrow Tearsmarilyn terwillegerWow! Beautiful imagery! I read this twice and my favorite stanza was..A heart of aches precedes me, yesterday only an echo. Sparrow Tears is such a perfect title for this. I wish I had just a fraction of your imagery in writting. Rene' 2007-11-30 01:52:27

A Moment In TimeThomas H. SmihulaYour first 3 stanzas were breath taking and penned extremely beautiful Your last stanza kind of threw me off. It seemed as though you needed to end the poem but didn't know how. A quick ending. Maybe it is just me but the last stanza seemed as though it didn;t go with the awesome write of the 1st three stranzas. But I did truly enjoy reading this. You are quite a writter. Rene'2007-11-16 00:00:57

Words are the Mortar of LifePaul H. RoefsPaul, You are right! This sould be in a plague on a wall. If your words please your tongue They will always be well spun...this alone is a masterpiece.

Life's WindowNaome JamesNaome, BEAUTIFUL!! I am known to have short attention span when reading at times but this kept my interest to the end.

You paint a picture that read like a movie in this poets mind. Welcome to TPL!! Looking forward to reading more of your work!! Seriously!! Rene'2007-10-12 19:21:33
ALL HALLOWS EVEPaul R LindenmeyerPaul!! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! Bravo! Excellent poem. It kept my interest from the very first sentence. I didn't want the story to end. You did an exceptionally excellent job in your rhymes as your words tell a story through out. Again, Bravo!! Rene'2007-10-10 01:07:04
To Sign...Mary J CoffmanMary!! I gotta say, this is exceptionally well writen. I enjoyed every beautiful word you penned. This alone.....hands speak in circles on my breast in rose petal rhymes.......can stand out alone and be writen as a haiku. (Though I have never writen one myself) lol...no, seriously, you are a excellent poet. Rene' 2007-10-10 01:04:17
First LightMary J CoffmanWow! Very bright!...LOL, get it? Yellow? oh, never mind, I am being silly. I love your metaphors. I only wish I could just sit down and write like this. My favorite of favorite stanza here is.....lemon flavour kisses of dayspring dew...BREATHTAKING!!! Rene'2007-10-09 13:35:17
TangleJames C. HorakJames, I gotta say, I love your different style of poetry. I find it very interesting and very thought provoking. I love when I see your name because it is a surprise read every time. I love your imagery and metaphors. You have this reader smiling. I feel I could learn alot from you. Rene'2007-10-09 13:33:03
The soldiers guiltSonya stewartWow! I had to read this twice. Excellent write and well thought out. I checked out the site booksie.com and low and behold, I belong to that site. I have no idea when I joined it cause I had no clue I was even a member...lol Anyway, I love your sytle and imagery. Sad words, so true for many. Rene'2007-09-25 21:03:01
Unpleasantries GaloreJames C. HorakJames, I don't know how to critique this piece because I don't understand its meaning. But alot of poeple don't understand the meaning of my poetry either because alot of it is personal and I just write what is at my fingertips at the moment. Your methaphors I must say are excellent. I could only wish to the talent to use such grace. The reason I suggested to mark about the puncuation, is that I try to learn as much as I can from anyone. I do not claim at all to be a poet. I just write a release for me as a part of my lifes healings. But I have had alot of people tell me that in poetry not to use puncuation. That is why I stopped using them. I, myself very much enjoy when someonem ESPECIALLY another poet gives me ANY advice and or help in any way. I would give just about anything to be able to pen as beautiful as the many poets I have read. But, as far as leaving to vowels out this week, what a challange. Good luck to you! Rene' 2007-09-23 13:06:34
MirageMary J CoffmanWow! I seriously think you could write a great book! This is awesome and each word kept me in anticipation for the next. You write with beauty with the most off the wall (or should I say different inspirations) I used to love to drink margaritas, so I could actually invision you standing there, in a red dress and a bar table drink your drink lost in deep thought. DID I SAY EXCELLENT IMAGERY? Rene'2007-09-22 06:43:45
E. B.James C. HorakWow! This is dfferent. It being a true story, in my opinion even makes it that much more of an enjoyable read. Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us as well as your friend. Rene'2007-09-22 01:37:32
Friday Night at the PubMichael BirdI thought this was in sync with "Piano Man" I actually saw him in concert. Well done in combining the two. Not an easy task to do. Rene'2007-09-22 01:35:29
Within ReachThomas H. SmihulaThomas! I love this! Your words come to life with each stanza. Your imagery is to envy. And your metaphors are perfectly penned. Awaken for a sliver of time Repeat performance, no longer blind........breathtaking!!! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! Rene' 2007-09-22 01:32:32
BeachedMary J CoffmanMary! GREAT WRITE! And your format is perfect. Can you please tell me how to format like that here? I have yet to figure that out. Now, back to your poem, excellent, excellent imagery and metaphors. Beautifully thought out and penned with words created from the thought. I love your style because though you use imagery with metaphors, I find your work easy to read and defiantely understand. I am not scratching my head, saying, huh! Looking forward to reading more of your work. Rene'2007-09-22 01:29:11
Seat Belts Do Save LivesClaire H. CurrierClaire, This gave me goosebumps. This true story seems to actually be true for so many and younger people, teens do not realise just how dangereous the roads can be. I am so glad that every one survived. My brothers daughter died in a car wreck not even a year ago. She was 23 years old and already a practicing attorney. Seat belts for all who ride in my car is mandatory. Thank you for posting this. It should be posted everywhere for many to see expecially it being a true story. Again, for the kids in the car as well as their families, I am so very glad they all survived a lesson I hope they all remember. Rene'2007-09-15 17:19:58
PiecesMary J CoffmanMary, This is really good! I read this twice. Your inagery is writen with such a beauty and yet, not an over kill as your words tell a story. The beginning of the poem... from deep within a cocoon of sophistry you emerge....breathtaking which leads perfect to the rest of the right with every word you penned seemed perfect. 2 thumbs up for sure. Rene'2007-09-15 17:01:58
My GoodbyeDeniMari Z.Deni, My heart cried as I read your words. (especially after your email) I know these feelings all to well. I remember the screams in my head, the hole in my heart and the loneliness in my mind. My heart goes out to you friend! I am here anytime you need. And I mean this. Wishing you a gentle healing, Rene'2007-09-15 06:41:44
