I\'m currently reading \'Tess of The d\'Urbervilles - (think I\'ve spelt that right)and this reminds me so much of some of the scenes - it\'s a very naive story by today\'s standards but the English is so so good - pity there doesn\'t appear to be any modern writers up to Hardy\'s standards. Which brings me back to this - you should be writing books - your use of the language is par excellence!

My Dear Fay,

Reading your super write reminded me of the last time I saw an owl. It was at the Healesville Sanctuary in Australia! An experience of a lifetime!

Yes those beauties hunt easily over our lit up motorways etc nowadays.

Oh to be rural tho and allowed the luxury of burning coal again.

One wonders if, back at home, Mrs Rat is thinking \"where\'s my Fred gotten too. He should have been home hours ago\".
If one of ours was plucked from above in the night we would miss them for a lifetime but.... does Mrs Rat miss Fred in the same way?

A real \'Hoot\' of writing from you today Fay.

Cor... or should one say hoot, on occasions such as this.... How atmospheric can ya get.... I love the way you describe the owls new hunting ground on this particular night, I was not expecting that.. I close my eyes and can see those silk clad dancers, in candelabra light...... The owls around my neck of the woods are particularly vocal at the moment.. lovely..... Neville

dusk arising said:

The drawing in of the evening can bring sadness and lead us to reflect upon happier \'together\' times.
Your words have encouraged me to reflect upon such times but i\'m too positive to go on a downer. My reflections are upon joyous times I have been so lucky to have had as a part of my existence. I try to encourage this way of looking back in others who i see suffering a loss.
On the other hand, some are simply susceptible to loneliness. Having been a solitary soul for many years i am lucky again not to feel that way.
See what your choices of subject do to me? Or is it the way you present them that gets under my skin and draws reaction? The latter of course,

Great write Fay. I loved \"widowed shoreline.\" Very imaginative, and it sets up the tone of the poem. Brilliant.
The connection between widows and the sea , the massive loneliness of the ocean, the loss of the Sun over its horizon all add intensity to this phrase and the entire poem. Just a great poem Fay. A favorite for me. - Phil A.
