This years hot summer came with major challenges for me. But the arrival of autumn and cooler temperatures was a great relief!
I hope you are also fine, creative and in high spirits!
Warmly,

It’s about damn time you posted again! And the wait has been worth it, with your high quality gems.
– I was going to post something involving trees/leaves tonight actually, but there’s a glitch in posting currently, It has to wait.
But we have your wonderful poem to inspire us, and it does. I love the calm of this “ending” towards life. It brings a peace of mind that life has been rewarding. It is a soothing tone. What a great approach.
wonderful write, Elke.-

Elke

I like this “Do not go gentle into the gas blight”. 😊

This should be under Fia’s comment, but my computer will not put it there for some obscure IT reason. So I put it here.
Fia, It should be “Centle,” like with pemmies, but the eye does not see the “C” ’cause you’re expecting a G if you know the Thomas original, “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night.” I expeect many, maybe even MOST people will miss the C.

Okay, it was dark, I was half asleep, I drank a liter of scotch, someone glued my eyes shut, and I fell asleep, so I wrote pemmies instead of pennies, so sue me.

Well, I guess it’s fixed now so yay for that. Personally, I think it’s the ghost of Dylan Thomas screwing with me ’cause he doesn’t like the new version of his famous poem, Well, I say, “Aw shucks, Dylan, have a heart — or something that sounds sorta like that.
