Spring
in Spring Poems
There's a hum from the bees in the air
which stirs up gentle musings in my mind,
scented blossom is making me aware
of certain hidden treasure they may find.

in Husband Death Poems
A shadow walks beside me
in the rising rays
of the sun
I turn a corner
Hi Ann, like you I also lost my soulmate, I still feel her presence today, I do believe they are looking over us, God bless you.

(The book I've been reading rests on my knee,
you sleep.) (Wendy Cope)
I am trying to read, I cannot sleep,
Thank you, James. As you know, all comments are welcome and mean a great deal. All the best, Ann.
in Aging Poems
To find room
for her flannel nighties,
a well-worn woollen dressing gown,
her furry slippers
Oh Pat,
I sometimes think if it wasn't for people like you I might just give up writing poetry. I get so low when my poems don't receive any votes. In fact I tried to get one deleted,...
I can see it, feel it and hear it - you have created such a vivid picture. Thank you, Patricia, for yet another beautiful poem. Love and very best wishes, Ann.
I too was very touched by this poem. Lovely - well done. Best wishes, Ann.
Like so many others, I have been really touched by this poem. I also agree with the author that writing can help you through difficult times. I wrote throughout my husband's illness and subsequent death, but have reached a stage now when the urge to write has gone. I'm not quite sure why...
Another great poem. I've had depression, but not quite as bad. However, it's great that you can write about it, as I'm sure it will connect with many people who know exactly what you are describing so well. Love and very best wishes, as always. Ann
Oh Pat, I just love your poetry. I am so damned old myself it's great to read a poem that sums up how I feel about my aged self. Keep writing! Love and very best wishes, Ann.
