Such a loving memory. It always seems to be the very small things in life that we remember most.
This poem brought back a picture of the wingback chair I would sit in when very young. A very pleasant memory. thank you for that, - Phil A.

made me think of my Fathers old jacket ..
I didn\'t need to squeeze a tear from my eyes while reading .. they came from out of nowhere all on their own ..
this is a magnificently crafted poem Bella that truly took me on a far too brief journey back in time .. and for that alone, I thank you .. Neville

Nostalgia - so rich I almost felt I knew that coat and would be looking out for it every time I visit a charity shop from now on. (It\'s where I get most of my clothing - but don\'t tell anyone).
For me, a large wing back chair...Thanks for the smooth ride - it really drew me in, Bella.

A great poem and a wonderful memory. Thank you for sharing with us! Such powerful imagery. And I remember what it was like to have a mom.

A wonderful memory and metaphor of how we look to the strength and comfort of the past; our mother, that took away all of our fears and gave us a vote of confidence that we wish we could still feel today.. A touching and poignant poem.

Well of course this is a wonderful poem, a beautiful scene hiding inside your mom\'s coat superbly written and left me smiling from ear to ear dear Bella. Dolly Parton\'s coat of many colours also came to mind. I adore that song she also wrote it for her mom. π

(love your tonality
in this subtle droplet of wisdom
thank you! kind Poet)
yes, this is one of my coping methods
I will save a fantasy
or a song, or a movie, a book
anything
because I know when life
throws
those blind sided, punches n slaps
I\'m gonna need them
to help me hide and survive
till I can rise again, shake it off
and smile bright

Bella this is such a wonderful thought and piece of advice. We advise people to save their money for a rainy day but seldom are we told that it is just as important, if not more so, important to save emotional profit for those days as well. Loved this piece Bella

Memories
Pop64 said:
While a beautifully formatted and flowing read, it contains the maudlin ideal of memories, how we might lose them and how we can gain them and treat them. A treat for the reader, but a sad truth for he or she suffering from this dilemma.

Fantasies are marvelous as they let us all indulge in more often those things we cannot have or are taboo. Yet, serve to provide a happiness when needed or wanted. Beautifully expressed.

My comments on the poem \"My little fantasyβ by Bella Shepard
When no solace or help is to be found from elsewhere, we can only delve deep within ourselves. We have no choice but to console ourselves. Thus, we must find and keep that strength within us. Soman Ragavan. 12 September, 2023.

Lovely to read as per
But you leave us wondering what the fantasy could be
A poem in the making possibly
Clever to leave the reader wanting more
I\'m sure I just heard a roar in the distance

When We Are One
AuburnScribbler said:
A gorgeously written poem here Bella, such an emphatic reminder of the base hope that is in all of us. Though the understandable infuriating tone you\'ve chosen for the last three lines, is a lament of the prolonged true horror story, that humanity continues to write.
Thank you for sharing, bravo, and I hope that all is well.

too few take risks these day .. it feels increasingly like a tick a box, tap a key and pop a pill world we all live in .. I believe we have risk assessed ourselves into a corner ..
I also agree with every ingle word you have writ .. glad you broke the mould my friend & it didn\'t go the other way wink wink .. Neville
