CORNWALL ~ A Perfect Peninsular ~ Timeless & Touched by the hand of God ! Thanks FAY for perfection in Poem \'n Pic and reminding us ~ that in essence ~ MPS is a POETRY SITE ! How a Poem ends is equally as important as its start & middle ! I love you final verse !

A perfect title. It lived up to its name. Your sense for description and making things seem almost visible is astounding. Well done.

Ideally FAY ~ Each child born into this World should enjoy a loving upbringing with its Birth Mother & Genetic Father ! Because MEN don\'t get Physically Pregnant ~ The Girls they impregnate often end us a Single Parents and have to bear the Responsibility of Child rearing alone without the support of the Father. Worse still they are often driven to choose ABORTION a the most most appropriate answer to a difficult situation ! I am PRO-LIFE Thanks for raising this dilemma which always greatly disadvantages the Female. Thanks for caring ~ BRIAN

BEAUTIFUL FAY ~ Memories of the Old Fashioned Sunday ! Alas the peace and tranquility and the traditional Church Service and Sunday Lunch etc have been replaced by Shopping trips ~ dining at the Harvester and the user friendly radio replaced by the \"must be watched & listened to\" TV ! When I became a teen (1996) most of what you describe had disappeared ~ no time for meditation ~ Sunday is no longer a \"Day of Rest\". Thanks for sharing ~ yours BRIAN.

Thanks FAY ~ The structure of feathers and their role in flight ~ thermal protection and waterproofing etc is a very academic but very rewarding field of study ! Birds could fly long before Man but we can learn much about Astronautics by studying Birds ! Even a single Feather is a miracle and I always collect them when I find them. Delicate photo and an elegant Poem. Because there are Birds ~ there must be a Creator ~ AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN.

I love feathers!! In Amy Tan\'s Joy Luck Club the best quote (to me) is \"This feather comes from afar and brings with it all my good intentions\".... they are magical little messengers...... when I find them on the floor I think someone I love who died is speaking to me........

FIRST BALLAD.
MendedFences27 said:
I will join the chorus and say that this is a well crafted piece. The link from wood to music is apropos. Think of the guitar, violin, cello, or bass; and then, there are the woodwinds, which at one time were wooden instruments. Certainly the conceptual thought of both creators of music and. say. a piece of furniture is on a par. A great first ballad. It held my interest from the get-go, and reminded me of youthful days working in a carpenters shop. Wow! A storyteller is born. Loved it. - Phil A.

There is always a melody being played out in busy Carpenter\'s Shop and I have often heard it and even a Carpenter playing BACH on a Musical Saw.
