Very cute. I get the picture of someone strolling through a meadow and being stopped by a lovely flower, not plucking it but instead sitting next to it in order to continue enjoying it.

Very rich in imagery and metaphor. Short poems are the hardest to write, but you managed to pack it in as few lines as possible. Well done James Papastamos

Mr Sheridan-excellent poem! ! I am truly in awe of your poetry, I really mean it, I've come to your pages more than once, sometimes I feel as though I'm reading a renowned poet who is taking his place alongside ee cummings etc. No kidding. You are an inspiration to me, and I hope to be writing the pieces you are writing when I am your age! Please check out my poems as well! Samuel Stuart Pennell
