      • Very much please indeed. Such fun to read your clever and lighthearted slice of the morning.
        Happy me to have connected. Be well Emma 🙂

      • Many thanks Jim.. wrote that whilst still asleep – probably shows! However being an admitted scribbler I go with the flow.

      • Joy,
        From what I know, this sounds like you, your life, your time, your place… all of it full of quiet beauty…

      • ‘climbing the notes to where you are
        so high in the atmosphere
        and yes I know I’m sky scraping
        but damn you are fine’

        fine writing.. seems you’v found why, where and how: the person has added ‘special’ to everything

        • hello lovely Emma good morning thank you graciously for the love on this it’s appreciated❤

      • Next to last stanza is so-well worded. This quite sensual but not blatant, which makes it poetry that is a pleasure to read.
        I also really like the stanza that emmagreen pointed out.
        You have a nice variety to your writing.
        I clicked that I was mature enough to read this poem. Even though I am 75, I probably scammed on being mature enough.

        • hello dearest Jacob thank you graciously I’m happy you liked this and at 55 I’m mature enough too lol❤

      • Brenda, this is one of your best pieces… truly well spoken!

      • I found myself spinning with the joy of fulfillment to be. Thanks dear Crimsin. (It’s not a sin ;))

      • It’s almost 7PM here, but ty dear!
        I’m in Rhode Island
        are you in Nova Scotia?

      • Passionately penned, Brenda. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

      • We need to have enough faith in our fellow men and women to stop and listen to them.
        They matter, their thoughts matter, their poetry matters.
        We need to work together to secure love and respect.

        • Jacob, your final phrase says it all – although faith appears to be unfashionable these days. Nonetheless, your review is more than kind, sir – many thank, as always.

      • Joy,
        Ah, such a nice sip of cold water in a parched world… This is why poetry is so important… the great mystery is tha there are so many who never slow down enough to find out…

        • Some people seem to treat poetry as if it is Covid and it will kill them if they stop to read it.

          WE don’t mean any harm we just tell it like it is.

          • I used to tell my student that poetry was the easiest of all the arts.
            One, it is the job of art to wake souls, sometimes
            minds, two, if you can read, that’s all the skill you need, three what it says to you is what it says. There is no “wrong” interpretation. Changes every time somebody reads it. Oh and in today’s world of diminished attention spans,,. they can be quite short…

      • Slowing down these days can be taken as a sense of failure – how tragic is that!
        Time is not for lying on the grass as with your recent poem. It’s more likely,’What, take a day off. Can’t do that, I’d lose money, promotion, the promised new car. Plus do manage to say good night to the kids. Thank you, Vol, your words – like many in the past, are much appreciated.

      • Beautifully penned, Emma. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.
