"I never post opinions, but I have to say something here. Mr. Sergent, you have inspired me in more ways than I can count. I truly enjoy your new website http://LifeinaRhyme.com I like the way you've separated the poetry into groups on that site. And, I was especially excited about hearing you read some of the poetry! That was great! My favorite poem on there is "Priceless". It is so true. Keep your words of wisdom flowing. I have several friends who read your poetry and stories. You affect more people than you'll ever know." Anna G. Hollywood, CA.

"Is there any portion of the human heart and spirit that you DON'T know!? I've read that you consider some of your poetry "Escape Poems". The ones that take the reader away for awhile. Those are my favorite. It's a pleasant way to spend my lunch break at work and quiet time at home. Thanks for the free vacations!" Jenna Frankson, Australia.

A million thanks for all the comments above and below. These are the main reason that I decided to return all of this poetry back to my site for my readers to enjoy free. I decided to remove my poetry from my website a little over two years ago, as I was readying my book for release. I will still be releasing my book "Life in a Rhyme" eventually, but I will continue to give the poetry freely on this site. - Donnie Sergent Jr
  • Be prepared to settle down with a drink of choice and some munchies, as you travel through this literary smorgasbord. You will find enough reading to last an entire evening! His quote page provides some food for thought. Browse through his links and check out his short stories! I warn you, as you journey into Donnie Sergent Jr's world, his writings just might reach out and touch your heart! - BriefMe Magazine
     
  • Author Sergent has done a tremendous job with his writings. A fresh look. - Author John A. Keel
     
  • I love to read author Sergent's poetry, quotes and stories. It's obvious that they come from the heart. - Sandra Roach, Formerly of Alcove Books
     
  • I hope I can live up to the words of your poem dedicated to me. You are truly blessed. Thank you. - Dr. Robert M. Holley
     
  • Mr. Sergent's constantly updated poetry is what keeps me coming back. I particularly like the fantasy poems like, "The Midnight Wraith", The Tale of Lythuseriun", The Tale of Cronas" and "Magic and Brawn". From another discussion group I know that Mr. Sergent plans to release a fantasy fiction book entitled "Magic and Brawn". I can't wait for it. - Tinity Dawn, Constant Reader and Fan.
     
  • Miller's pond was a pleasantly scary suspense. I've read it over a dozen times. The flow of the story is great and the surprise at the end makes me smile at every reading. I await another story like this. Mr. Sergent's vision of reality and hint of fantasy is a pleasurable journey. I felt like I was there. - Thomas Jurgen, Internet Fan.
     
  • I've been reading Mr. Sergent's works since the early days of the 1990's when he used the pen name Christopher Xavier Knight. The new works after he switched to his real name didn't disappoint. I was afraid he would change his writing style like some authors do after switching names for one reason or another. But, the new poetry holds firm to the fantastic style I've come to know and love. - Jessica Styles, Reader of old.
     
  • Thankfully, we now have access to a wealth of poetry and a teasing of fiction from an author not interested in getting rich. The honesty of his love to write shines through in Mr. Sergent's works. I long for more. Teresa Brines, Internet reader.
     
  • The true heartfelt passion found in various poems on the subject are an honest outpouring of emotion. From the various situations in the poetry, it's obvious that all the situations aren't his own life. This leads me to see an author that can truly feel the emotions of others and portray them as if his own. Author Sergent has let a massive heart loose on the world. I enjoy its embrace and falter just the same. I've cried at situations that I've experienced myself and smiled at the good feelings brought to light by a few of the others. I have finally found an author that gets it. It's a guilty pleasure at every sitting. - Danielle Franson, Internet Reader for years.
     
  • You don't just get to know the author by reading these works, but the world itself. Mr. Sergent's poetry and quotes visit every aspect of life as we know it and life as we never will. After reading a few select poems, you will need the rest like a drug. My walls portray my love of them. I enjoy the looks on my visitors' eyes when the read a few and ask where they can read more. I feel like I'm just doing my part for an author who's done his already. I look forward to more. - Cynthia Chastice, Reader forever.
     
  • I often lose inspiration for my own poetry. It's nice to have a treasure trove of inspiration at my fingertips. Thank you for posting your works online. I make brief, but important visits often. Jonathon Hagey, Big Fan and Someday Author.
     
  • Marta - Dallas/USA - Donnie, Loved the site. I loved The Mothman Prophecies! Did not know you had written on that as well, will check it out! Your poetry is soulful. Love, Marta
     
  • Hello. I just wanted to let you know how much your poetry has helped me out in bad situations. There are a lot of answers in your pen Mr. Sergent. Keep it coming. Helena New York, NY
     
  • If the quality of ink was gold, you'd be the richest man in the world. But, since the heart is better than gold, I believe you are close to being just that. Never stop this flow. I look forward to each new idea and vision. I am constantly finding things in your poetry that make me stop and think about life in a different way. -A Faithful Reader in Oklahoma
     
  • Hello Donnie. I'm a member of your Yahoo Group and just wanted to share something with you. Every time you send a freshly written poem or short story to the group, it makes my day. It's hard to beat free literature, especially that of your caliber and the frequency of your posts. I am amazed that a published author gives so freely of himself to his readers. I just wanted to thank you and let you know that everyone in my household has a better day when you send out your writings. You are wise beyond your years and even more so than those twice your age. Your writings are enjoyed by my teens as well as my parents. Keep the quill wet from the well and bless us with your wit and wisdom. Name not important... :)
     
  • Mr. Sergent, your writings have given me a gift that I'll never be able to thank you for. I have a severe social anxiety and depression. I often try to write myself, but it never turns out the way I wanted it to. I had given up all hope, yes ALL hope, when I chanced onto your website. Dozens of your poems read like it was actually me writing them. I followed ups and downs, prayers and defeat, just like in my own life. I was ready to commit suicide when I read one of your poems that completely changed my mind: "Give Yourself the Chance". My mind had been racing so fast that I forgot a lot of things. Most importantly, how to believe in myself. The good Lord grants life, but mere mortals can restore it. Thank you. - T. Sanson in Virginia.
     
  • Wow what a beautiful, complex heart! The complexity of your heart is surprising considering the simplicity of your parables. Keep them coming. - Teresa Blaney, Idaho.
     
  • The diversity of your poetry and short stories is what astounds me most. I've been a published author for decades and have never found this much variation in subject matter written as well from any author. S.K.
     
  • Rick - Andrews AFB, Maryland - Donnie, love to read your work!! Keep it up! Thanks for your many words of wisdom that you gave me. Your a true person with a great heart, which is hard to come by these days! e-mail me sometime or give me a call anytime! -Rick Patrick-
     
  • Donnie, I think you are the greatest, I have two of your books and love the poems from your soul. Love you bunches, Jeanie
     
  • I love your website on the mothman!!! I'm doing a school project on this unsolved mystery!!
