This is a truly beautiful and poignant poem. I'm so thankful for your ability to write through the pain and share such beautiful memories. I am sorry for your profound loss and wish you many blessings as you continue your journey.
I really relate to this poem and many of your other poems. I should love to know more about you and what started you on the path to becoming a poet. Perhaps you could fill in your bio on Family Friends? I should very much enjoy reading it. Very best wishes, Ann.
What a lovely comment, Abimbola. Your encouragement means a great deal to me. Thank you very much indeed.
Very best wishes, Ann.
You managed to paint a portrait of him, Ann, and it's a beautiful one. So are your other poems too. Their brevity, depth and your dexterity with different forms and styles are things I really admire.
Best wishes,
Abimbola.

I think the poet in childhood experienced the same thing which he narrated so very beautifully in the poem. It just strongly reminded me of my childhood and how pleasant it is to remember those innocent bubbling days. Truly this poem touched my heart. Salutes to the poet. Hats offff!!!
Peggy,
You take the time to appreciate the work of others, offer encouragement and leave insightful comments. It's quite obvious you are a kind, intelligent and tenderhearted person, and I can tell you are a child of God. I love to read your comments whenever I come across them on any poem; how they often resonate with me, it's like listening to a friend. Thank you.
Best regards,
Abimbola

My heart goes out to you. I'm just glad you find writing poetry is therapeutic. I found the same when we discovered my husband was terminally ill. Do keep writing. Very best wishes, Ann.
Something about this poem really caught my attention. You have used some wonderful phrases. Really special. I must look up and see what else you have written. Best wishes, Ann.
