Eric Cockrell Comments

Very nice. Did not expect this from you.

I was looking for a poem to end a reflection on the last story in Matthew 25. I found you and In the Presence of God and got hooked on your prayerful, insightful poetry. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Forget Eric Cockrell

i would like to thank you for the poem 9/11 And the day after thanx..

Enjoy your day Eric my friend, keep gifting the words the light into other lives, for this we choose to live our days.

Eric Cockrell is on facebook every day, still writing about freedom, equality, human rights, poverty, all the themes he always wrote and we valued so much. I still read some of Eric's poetry daily. They are gone from here now, Eric Cockrell 23rd January 2013, Gregory Uhan (Uhan, Gregory Allen) March 2013, Terence George Craddock June 2013 and Miroslava Odalovic March 8th,2014 busy now writing another book. They still flutter past on facebook but I miss the time when they were here. When once we shared poetry on this site: (

Wait where has Eric gone, I know I have not been often but his writing, as inspired me to be a better poet, how long has he been gone, oh my....IS HE OK....sigh...I pray you are ok Sir...devoted fan KG

You should come back now!

Hi Eric, you write too much, I'm jealous. You really are like a Buddhist Priest at his temple.

one bear two bear oh! my dear happy new year

always be happy dont be sad its my saying remember that.....................

His voices Those voices Come from somewhere far Far, far away..in a man. a man A man who travel by his mind Who has nothing but honest heart A man who candles light in his voice His words utterly heard Wander through the world With his wisdom played In every song he sings About pieces to be whole About scar to get healed Still far, far away Journey of him to bright To stop and sing his own melody Cheer people with his words Who believe in love Those voices I still hear today From a same man who still offers his heart for us learning something For us taking from his experiences So now i singing my own song for a man who sing us for long A man of far, far away But very near near inside Eric Cockrell Who is a man, where the candled sound comes Dedicate to Eric Cockrell By Unwritten Soul

There is a divine touch in his write.It makes us think about the life here and life beyond.I'm one of his admirers.

In the poem, Insurrection, the one word 'breaking' has sparked you to think of a number of 'breaking outs' and bring out wonderful images.

This is soo emotional i started to cry to bad at this. i smashed my old PC in sadness I had a stroke but... WHERE IS THE PUNCHUATION? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? THIS IS DISGRACEFUL IN THE NAME OF GEOGRAPHY

Never has a poet so much of himself and his belief system into his poems. A finer poet I've never known and if there is a poet truly worthy of being a poet for all generations, you are that poet. Your poetry deal with issues that most stay clear from and that is perhaps your greatest quality and greatest strength..That bravery is to be admired and may it serve as an inspiration too.

O flying Cockrell, go and go and go, then fly to find there, a green cloud, carrying life and love, when you shake hands with it, ask it politely, to send for us, rain of life, and rain of love, the first, to our desert, the second, to our dreams, then write down over there, four words, and only four words, : : WE MUST SPREAD LOVE PH.D: AHMED KHALED

One of the reasons i address him as Sir, is because of his excellent writing skills, abundance experience in life, and his intelligent and encouraging comments.he gives the word wisdom a difèrent meaning...im honoured to ever have a man of his qualities to read and comment on my poetry....

great poet. will really appreciate if eric comments on my poems as i'm just new on poemhunter

I came on this site in august, and one of the first Poets I read was Eric Cockrell. I was only ever going to put a few poems on, but after reading Erics work it made me want to write more and more. He is a man who will write the truth, a man who Puts real thought and feeling in his poems. It is an honour to read this mans work. And thanks to you Eric I once again love to write. Keep fighting the fight.
