Oh Cosmo Dost Thou No longer Love Me?

Oh Cosmo Dost Thou No longer Love Me?

It seems I am unrateable, unknown and yet
Debatable
I hope I am not hateable
But am in quandary…

It seems betwixt the pen and word
Of course no human voice is heard
But hark a sign to see my lines
Would brighten up my day

But nary will the system greet
Those rating stars I long to meet
Those golden gems adore my script
The joy of seeing them is ripped

Oh Cosmo dost thou hate me so
For reasons I have yet to know
But others tell me they also
Have problems with their stars
 

It seems that there  be foul aplay
When fellow poets aim to say
Good words  of poetry  but find
Their comment rating active blind

So please thou great Cos’Funnelist
Maybe there’s something that’s been missed
Adjust the rating so my stars
Align with yours and become ours

A Lonely Journey

Hi Loki...Grammy...Awesome Person! 
I miss you. I haven't been on much, but just caught this, and please know that you're very loved, and a fantastic! writer. 
I think what happens is(I know it does with me), people see your writing, and say 'why does this only go up to 5 stars!!' and become frustrated that they can't give you more! lol. 
I get discouraged on here sometimes because I get a couple of hundred reads, and a couple of comments(from the beautiful Cheerie's Angels, and the Angel Cheerie herself). 
And I may be wrong, and now I think I am, because you may be writing about how the star thing doesn't work, and I'm not the brightest banana in the bunch, so forgive me, but a lot of people get frustrated on here because people can't take 5 seconds to say 'hey, nice poem' after they read it, and I know my writing is brutal, but I like fake praise as much as the next person. lol. 
Anyway, hi, and this is a long-winded explanation of incorrectly viewing your poem, but thanks for listening...and glistening, because your writing shines like the stars you deserve. 
I hope you're doing well. 

Your adopted sonny boy, Matthew. 

(I hope this makes sense...and if it does, please tell me what I'm talking about). M.

Haha yes it does..This was written quite tongue in cheek as I have had problems in the past  even writing comments for other poets..   ..so wondered if it was a general thing..but a couple of people have mentioned that they are having similar problems so thought I would highlight it just in case there is a glitch somewhere... I have been 'in and out' so to speak for a while now as  the real world sometimes catches up with me  and I go spinning off in that direction..but do miss my Cosmo 'family' Today I am home and writing and reading so can devote some time to the site..which, my adopted sonny boy, is always good. Stay well and safe  always . Loki ♥♥

Being Me

Your work is always beautifully written. You are not hated!  Cosmo seems to have a number of glitches at the moment. When I click stars I notice they don't show at first but then they appear eventually. Great poem... Love it ??? x

Ps I just gave you 5 stars but they haven't registered...... Yet. I hope they do x

Aw Bless you  for your kind words, mine are said with a certain amount of wryness as it seems a common problem with the various poetry sites on line at the moment that things are not running as smoothly as usual - I was hoping it might come to Cosmo attention though and they might look at trying to improve things..So pleased you enjoyed the poem though and hopefully can see the 'edge ' to it. Stay well and safe my friend and thank you again  Lodigiana xx

Lodigiana a fun and beautifully well written write and realistic as well for I'm have no poetic joy in bestowing them ... for now!
But will return tomorrow to carry on with my rewarding and most deserving endeavours.
I see what you mean and happens a lot on here but a small price to pay and it all comes out in the poetic wash, if one remembers!!!
Thank you for sharing and wish you well and as always stay safe my poetic friend.
Shaun.x.

Eureka! Five deserving stars bestowed after only a mere 1,789 attempts things are rapidly improving here on Cosmo's well oiled machine!
Those past problems must have been the donkey catching up with the carrot.
