Beautiful poem; I am in awe

Posted on Fri, 10 Jun 2022

Beautiful poem; I am in awe of these ferns- ancient seedless plants, millions of years in existence -one of the oldest neighbors in the forest. What tales they could tell if they could. I especially loved your last line's offer of respect....

Grimm's tales certainly are grim (pun intended) never thought they were palatable for young children but definitely thought fine reading for young adults. Your version of this dark account of the Pied Piper was nicely orchestrated and I liked the...

Hi Di-hard, so happy you're reading along. Hadn't thought of a sequel but you're right, it's possible. I’m trying to finish this with a worthy ending but I'll miss these characters too; they've been fun to create and get to know...hmmm, maybe a...
