To nurture is to love. What a great sentiment. We can succeed at parenting or even gardening if we follow your advice. A few words, much wisdom. Loved it.

I was about to laugh, but on second read I had to lose it. The poem reminded me of a book I read around 30 years back - Time of Desecration by Alberto Moravia. Mary\'s character is eerily reminiscent of one of tbe prominent characters in the book. An overweight girl who couldn\'t control her urge of eating due to depression.
A thought provoking poem in a deceptively simple language - to me it\'s high poetey.

That beautiful image and how much wisdom your message. Nature usually cures me at times just looking. She knows what I need and what makes me wrong. Thank you very much for sharing it. Greetings

So very true Tobani, why cannot people be told and be told the truth.

Thank you so, so very much for this since concluded week of hilarious posts rendering reality with a capable humour that turned the mundane into a thing of near joy.

Freedom of Expression.
Cheeky Missy said:
Hmm. I wonder whether it all depends on which alleged freedoms are being curtailed by the resurgence of \"ancient\" laws. After all, what we prefer not to acknowledge is the fact which our Declaration of Independence alluded to, namely, \"...the laws of nature and nature\'s God...\" Were I to begin enlarging on this the can of worms thus opened would overflow with squirmies. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

💯 Totally for freedom of speech. People seem to only like it when they like the speech...but that\'s the point of free speech, it can be said without approval. There are natural consequences to saying things one shouldn\'t, so let those do the work. No need to ban speech. Well done on this, my friend! A great poem to resume \"normal services\" with. Love it! 🌹👏

Yes and yes and yes and yes and yes and yes - is that six? (should equal the number of stanzas in your poem, with which I heartily agree.)
Freedom of expression is self evidently the way to go.
I\'m just left wondering if there were some specific action/legislation in the UK recently which stirred you into this declaration?

Some restriction on speech such as that that would cause irrevocable harm to another (shouting fire in a crowded area, deliberate slander of another, false advertising) have already been restricted but anything further is questionable, I believe in politeness and curtesy but restrictions on political correctness should be left up to public response. I am for freedom of speech
