hello dearest Thomas a day full of bluebirds and poetry lovely 💕

Powerfully penned, Thomas. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

I can relate. Well said Thomas.

Thank you.

A little Vivaldi can go a long way. I have been tuning in to classical myself recently. Better to soothe the mind with fine music than to stuff it full with world conflict. Good to find you here Thomas.

Chris

Good to see you, Chris. Thanks.

Powerful indeed & that’s a fact .. Neville

Thanks, my friend.

Thomas this speaks to me of deep abiding beauty in a timeless land. The imagery of the robin just learning to use its wings taking flight on the Western wind is just sublime. Loved reading this tonight.

John

Awesome write, Thomas. It reminds me of Tangerine trees and marmalade skies.

Excellent Thomas 😎👍

Beautifully penned, Thomas. Speaking facts here, excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

It flew though! Mine often slam into trees at least once. I love the way you gave the pen over & let it go

I agree with you, Thomas…that some poems actually write themselves, especially the ending, which I find to be quite surprising when the moment offers itself to me. I especially loved the eloquence and poetic nature of a “tangerine sky”. Wow, now why haven’t I ever thought of that? Good to have another transplant from the WC at the helm. Good seeing you, Thomas!

Good to see you. Thanks. Hello Poetry is another fantastic site.

Powerfully penned, Thomas. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

A little sad, but beautiful in it’s own way.

This is characteristically a Case of excellence .. write on brother Tom .. Neville

I’ll bet a lot of us (guys) have interacted with these birds before.

Thomas this took me on a journey into the heart of love and the sadness of lost love. I may be wrong but what I read as I read this seemed to speak to me of a man remembering his beloved who has passed from this earth. I have known this emotion so closely that your poem enshrines with poetry for the ages.

John

I’ve known people like this. It’s like a hunger they can’t sate, always be moving & seeing & going new places. Almost like it’s spiritual for them. I know a guy who literally hops & trains & goes where it takes him. This one made me smile 😊

Write on brother .. & always .. Neville 😎👍

Thank you, my friend.

Thank you, my friend. I appreciate it.

Beautifully penned, Thomas. Excellent write, the story of the traveler. Appreciate you.

Damian

I admit to having a bit of that hobo spirit in me. If not for the dedication I feel toward loved ones, I might have been a wanderer. You capture the phenomenon well.

I was once this boy. Always on the move. Never settling down. You have the quintessential poet’s gift of telling the story of your characters with deep understanding and empathy. This spoke to me deep down about years gone by.
