Looking back or forward we are forever reminiscing. Particularly when we get older. Remembering the simplicities of life that are now overlooked. Beautiful worlds to remind us of our youth. Thank you

This poem knocks you over with it's reverence for life and all it's glories. I find myself enthusiastically telling my grandchildren about all the things I think are great in nature or heroes I hold dear. they sometimes look at me in bewilderment but I am sure some of it sinks in! Well written and look forward to reading some more of your poetry.

I stopped by to peruse more of your work and am delighted to find such beautifully vivid imagery set free by the mastery of your wordcraft combined with a lyrical, melodic natural sense of rhythm and rhyme. A rare and enriching combination, indeed. I look forward to reading more of your work. Thank you.
