Wow! Indeed, I have two works in progress, longer pieces that I am not even quite sure what I am going to do with it once I finish. One is a narrative poem that is currently 13 1/3 pages long and 5,767 words. It\'s almost finished...but yeah. 😳 I cannot even begin to pretend to know how many hours spent working on it. Anyway, this is very true and well expressed my friend. It gets a fave from me. πŸŒΉπŸ‘

Wonderful write Tom. I\'ve recently been thinking on a similar idea of a life mission of love in the various types of love one can have in a life. Kind of my own WIP.πŸ˜‰πŸ‘

There was a song in the 80\'s we knew too well, touting that very thing, the beauty of the journey seen through the lens of this genre which spells out more than the artist realizes, ever and anon. What almost none knew is that the work is esteemed far more than the author, by default, since that is forever man\'s bent. Lovely and charmingly rendered with excellent imagery and a fascinating poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Indeed it is true and the work poem or novel is you, maybe not directly but indirectly. Lovely

Tinkering
Cheeky Missy said:

I was merely taught those defining words which you Brits and the Canadians also used, whileas certain my daddy used a fresh roll of Scott\'s Tissue in changing the oil of his mother\'s blue Chevy Nova. He was forever \"tinkering\" on some or other engine or device, the warning that girls whose dads were so capable were bound to marry men who\'d never dirty their hands nor know how to repair aught...a suggestion which made me shiver. On that angle so deftly turned to propose, I can\'t forget the sweet poetess in our local poetry group who would write and rewrite so many times it left me nearly squirming. Lovely and so charmingly rendered with exquisite imagery and a delicious poignancy. Thank you so very much for sharing. I love it.

Wonderful words and memories Tom. I can remember tinkering with my first car back in the 1970\'s if we were going to go on a journey over 100 miles, I still have some of those tools. LOL

Thanks for telling about Seamus Heaney\'s poem, Tom. My dad is a Dub so he didn\'t do much digging when he was in that vicinity!
Those sweet childhood memories. Beautiful evocation.

Young emulate models watched maybe not on the same things but on others. A poem needing rework just like an engine and still tinkering on both until satisfied. A great analogy in this poem. Lovely

i can definitely empathize with you - though earlier had the time and the inclination to do it - now only inclination remains

La dee! Yet what a very charming way to begin the morning on that characteristic day of rest, whose inherent calm seems to pervade. How gorgeously rendered in winsome directness, as if to disarm aught pretension; laden with such excellent imagery its delicate poignancy seems to hang, poised like a dewdrop. I love it. Thank you so very much for sharing.
