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.

Early morning walks can be lonely but also inspiring Tom. I hope you enjoyed your cuppa.

Yes , there\'s something I\'ve always liked about being out on a early morning and it\'s so quiet.

I do not watch football, rugby on the other hand is different, I have watched every match in the 6 nations (and 5 nations) for years. In the world cups there are 48 matches and I have seen them all in the last three world cups. A Rugby Nut am I Tom.

Wonderful poem, Tom. Growing up in the States you can imagine what I call football. American Football aside, I used to play football when I was younger, both sports actually, and the one we call \"soccer\" is far more exhausting and just as injurious, if not more so due to the lack of pads and helmets! And Pelé...wow!!! Quite the legendary name drop there! Love it!🌹👏

The Dog Ate My Poem (An Ode to World Poetry Day)
Cheeky Missy said:
Ah, and the insanity known as my \"life\" keeping me in the dark until tis twa days past, what shall I answer for myself? Funny, it\'s been too crazy. Guess my two shall hafta do. Oh, but I dearly love, love, LOVE how you capably turn aught with the flick of the wrist into a most charming poem. Winsomely rendered with exquisite imagery and a most delicious poignancy, thank you so very much for sharing.

The Dog Ate My Poem (An Ode to World Poetry Day)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Reminds me of the ones who got me into poetry to begin with. Well, as a real young one, there is Saint Dr. Seuss and Saint Shel Silverstein as a middle schooler. I looked up to my great-Grandma who was a poet and animal rights activist. And then there came Edgar Allan Poe, Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, and I would be remiss to not mention Jim Morrison, who helped me find Baudelaire among others. Sylvia Plath. The list just mushroomed from there and my writing developed along the way from 14 years old onward. So, with all of that now said, happy World Poetry Day, Tom! A fitting poem! 🙏🐦⬛🖤
