Wonderful piece of writing. I don't think I could have even started to put this together. Brilliant that's what it is. You'd have won the contest there's no doubt about that! Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
The only thing that I can possibly say is 'I don't know why in the world you didn't enter the contest! ! ' Well done.
Melvina, your story here touched more than one cord with me. Your story was almost fact to one person I know who by chance owns a farm. The farm where I retreat to at weekends. There are still some hurdles he has to overcome with the local Council. Luckily he has the backing from all of us, plus some of the media as well. Getting back to your poem, wonderfully constructed and using all the words to their full advantage to drive the story along to a wonderful conclusion. A brilliant write here and you should have entered the contest. An original idea put across as only you can do it. Top marks from me and thanks for sharing it. David
I think that's brilliantly related. I agree with Sandra. t x
