Within these words i can feel the longing of one looking out to sea. The expanse of most beaches is sufficient to expand the sense of solitude, longing, hope and prayer. All there for your reader today.

Your last line really got me! I\'ve always been a softie for those Waiting on the Shore ballads but I didn\'t see it coming this time. Very effective and poignant. The old balladeers never quite captured the inner thoughts of the waiting lover like you have!

Stay strong, Fay. \"And this too will pass.\" Sleep can sometimes carry one to the brighter side. Hope all is well with you. - Phil A.

You say it beautifully, as always!
Unfortunately I cannot relate, I must have been born with a little switch in my head. The moment I am horizontal, it sleeps. :-)

There is tragedy in the air and your first verse here took me straight to that feeling of despair.
Sleep the great leveller for the troubled mind, the gift of Morpheus.
So true the phrase \'it will look different in the morning\'

ANGELA HERE - Good Evening FAY.. Thanks for another gem - euloguising feathers ! Each individual Feather is a masterpiece of design. Each species of Bird has its own specific set of feathers - suited to their size & habitat. Seeing a Golden Eagle gliding on a thermal is an unforgettable experience - and one of the miracles of Nature - There is a GOD - AMEN. Thanks for sharing !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛

Aren\'t we all. by and large, envious of our aerial friends. I have often watched in awe with that childhood fantasy, still inside me, that i could fly among them.
But down to earth you may find me at dusk transfixed by the beauty of a blackbirds song.
You have the gift of taking your reader out of their environment to mentally romance with your chosen subject .... as i found myself doing once again today.

Yes, good write Fay. Also, I saw a midge creature, less than 1mm long. Minute (as in small size) fascination with it.
No one\'s perfect - except me, of course! No one believes me though. heehee.

Angela Here - Good Evening Fay - Love the visual. The aspect of the Poem that struck me was not so much the demise but the visual picture you painted of the transition form Town to Rural. A bit like J Betjemans *Journey to Diss*. I was raised up in London - so the transition to Rural Essex (which my Parents made while I was at University) was a real culture shock. I enjoyed the cultural amenities of London when I was a Teen and I had to adjust to *Small Town Life* and work @ the Local Hospital. It is interesting the Brian (brought up in Liverpool) and I in London should have chosen a House in a rural setting. Your poem stirred my memory - thanks for sharing ! I liked your last line which is very important in the present crisis *And then she started to PRAY - AMEN*
Blessings and Peace and joy

This moment of onsetting worry, as she traveled homeward in dread of the worst outcome hit home to me. Loved the exquisite way the description evolves, from minimum concern to prayer as she nears home. A great sense of empathy here. Loved it. - Phil A.
