Juliet and Maisie, Thank you for commenting on this little ditty - simple, conveyed so much, space for the mind to travel on in - i couldn't be more pleased with what you both have said - thank you very much x
I know very little about poetry other than what I like (or don't) and so can't speak from a point of authority - but that won't stop me from commenting.
This is very effective, it somehow feels like it is' how it should be' technically -(and it took me a long time to discover that there is technique involved in the mystery that is poetry - although I don't really understand the technical side of things of course.)
I liked it a lot.
Hi miawritertoo - thank you for your interest in this poem - you are an authority on what you like and don't like - i will always be trying to figure what i like and what i don't and why...(understanding tecnical aspects) - engaging with a piece is really what it is all about i feel - so thank you for yours -glad you liked it.
This peice caught my eye - as my wife's expecting.
I enjoyed the rhythm and flow of the lines, and of course the subject.
Congratulations on delivering a small slice of enjoyment! (pun intended)
I did a creative writing course a while back and poetry was my fave module - I think you have inspired me to dig it out again and have a look at the technicalities.
Thank you.
Juliet
maisie Guess what? I'm still alive!
