I really love this one. And it's such an accomplishment to write a short poem! I have such a hard time keeping my poetry brief, but I also seem to be happiest with my work when I do. My daughter writes beautiful tiny poems and I find it so inspiring. Thanks for sharing this one. It has everything it needs and nothing it doesn't. 💕
Thank you, Tara. I love the challenge of creating small pieces with impact. I sometimes think I keep my poems too short. Now I accept they tell me when they’re done.
Love the repetition and echoes expanding the resonances of each line.
Thank you. Sharon 🧡
Simply, yet so effective in expressing the emotion of that moment, thank you, Shondra!

Thank you, Paul!
Sometimes I like to read poems backwards, and yours works. Lovely poem, Shondra. 💞
Ah that’s lovely, Lani!
So lovely and sad.
Thanks, Margaret Ann ❤️
