Oh Tina, I flet so much

Posted on Sat, 21 Mar 2015

Oh Tina, I felt so much saddness at reading this piece. Those poor creatures that you got so much pleasure from, now gone.

A loving, tender poem that brings to mind the savageness of nature, that is inevitable.

Hi Tina,

It's frustrating to think that life is there just waiting to be discovered, and yet I wonder what it would be like to a stumble by chance on something we don't understand.

I like the mystery behind your writing.

Posted on Sat, 07 Mar 2015

I enjoyed this poem and understand that poetry is a tangle of words that entwine, becoming jumbled to eventually having meaning. Hope I read this as you intended it percieved.

Loved how you shifted from nature to music and then on to...

Hi Jean,

It must have been an amazing sight to see a train running for the first time, some of those engines were huge monsters.

I cannot imagine how hard in must have been to farm 240 acres of land...phew! It tires me out just...

loved the lines...

Posted on Tue, 10 Feb 2015

Hi Tina,

loved the lines...

the whine of a jet, threading its way

through the slow, cool jazz of a Sunday morning

waking...no particular place to go...

the dawning of my world,

soft, and yawning,  beside...
