A little bit about simple people.

I 'm a very simple person.

I don't use big words

I don't know how metaphors works.

If its true or not.

I don't know how to read any intellect stories

and I couldn't remember if I did.

I love how the french words look, but can't read it.

So please make it in simple english.

I love shorts storys,

because I know I will finish them.

It makes it hard when big words are used,

cause i would have to look them up.

So when you meet someone like me.

Remember I not dumb, I'm just simple.

There are certainly times I feel a bit over my head with the "big words" as well. I am always looking up words in Ed's poems, and Vinay's...even looked up one of David's words a few days ago. I have a BA degree, and some of these things are still over my head...I just look at it as a chance to learn something new. I also love to read the simple things...and I'm sure my own writing leans toward simple prose. I enjoy what you write Deanna....keep it up.

Deanna,
You are not alone! I too, am a simple person. Big words scare me off any reading material. Intellectual works using highbrow terminology quickly gets put away!

Deanna,
I appreciate your honesty. It's funny how simple and honest go hand and hand. I hope you are as simple as you say because this world needs more people like you.
