their 1000 watt smile
Cassie58 said:

Dear Safina, your words flooded me with wonderful memories of my own grandchildren. I am lucky enough to have two them living with me still. A lovely tribute to the younger generation. May they always make you smile poet. 🌹 Nothing like the smile of a child to warm your heart.

Water
Thoughtless said:

Here in the United States, we seem to always be in a perpetual state of drought. It\'s especially that way here in Kansas which has always been dry. The first settlers here did so because of heavy rainfall. They soon found out that Kansas never gets that much rain. Now we get it in bursts with heavy flooding followed by long dry spells. People often do not understand climate change because the climate itself is not local. If we get a hard winter, somebody will have sign in their car window on which is written like this, Damn this global warming. They don\'t understand. I never finished university, yet some of the grads that I have known are less educated than I am. I could not have said that a few years ago. They pick one subject and only get a dilettante\'s view of math or earth sciences. They are sadly lacking in logical reasoning as well. That being written, some kids are beginning to study more subjects in depth. So, there is hope.

Water
Cassie58 said:

So eloquently written. Water is so precious. We have a great deal of rainfall, but not enough reservoirs to catch it when it falls. Instead, the rivers get overburdened and are prone to flooding. Not only that to the shame of our water companies, sewage pollutes our rivers. This is a huge subject to tackle and you dear poet have given us much to contemplate. A world wide problem, not just local. 🌹

The more people the more our need for water. Conserve water and stop population increase.

yes - sad but true that areas needing rain are being deprived, while others being inundated
someone surely laughing up there - bcos evaporation should cause rain, but there is more drought all around..

White hair
Cassie58 said:

I don’t dye mine either Safina. Happy to let nature take its course. I like my grey. Good health is far more important than hair colour. Enjoy yourself, come what may, is sage advice in this finely penned poem. Happy Sunday.

The leaves
Doggerel Dave said:

Where I live too many people want to sweep them up into a bin. The trees they come from are older than the concrete paths which are swept.
I enjoy the multicolours of autumn.
Well painted picture you\'ve written.

The Lake

Wonderful descriptions and imagery.
It seemed a peaceful lake, yet one must be wary where one walks. Was this reflective of something you saw, or something created from your imagination? - Phil A.

What is love
Doggerel Dave said:

Yes, most of those would be love and not infatuation. Most take time to build and mature; they are not ephemeral.
