Fay,
you have captured a wonderful spring-time scene, and I\'m sure I speak for many that we feel the warmth of the sun very soon.
A nice write

A fine write Fay. Let\'s hope it\'s not too far away! We never know with the weather. Hope you don\'t have to write \'But then cruel frosts killed off the new growth, etc\'

Fine work Fay and I see the beginnings all round me. Currently in bloom in the garden: snowdrops, cyclamen, crocus, hellebores, iris, primroses, polyanthus and, as of yesterday, daffodils.

You are an amazing
gift to the literary world,
my dear Fay!
This is an awesome descriptive penned poem !
My mom has a similar pic
of her grandmother and
aunt who were married to
fishermen!
As I read your poem, I envisioned them standing by the Bay of Naples waiting for their husbands with the day’s catch ready to clean, pack, and deliver!
Loved this very special read! Thank you!

All ARTISTS ~ POETS ~ MUSICIANS have a spark of Genius and given time will produce a New Art Movement ~ A New Poetic Form or a New Music Genre ~ we all seek to add our Mark to Society & History ! Elvis was just a Poor Boy from Tupelo but He inspired a GENERATION ~ DALI a mystic Spanish Painter but He revolutionised 20th Century Art and Robbie Burns a Crofters Son who died Young but his Satire & Poetry is celebrated Worldwide. In the WORLD of SCIENCE a Girl from Poland ~ was forced to study Science in Paris because she was a GIRL ! By serendipity Becquerel chose her to examine the radiation emanating from Uranium and she isolated RADIUM & POLONIUM and obtained not just a PhD (which is a useful qualification) but became the only person to receive two NOBEL PRIZES in Science ~ Physics & Chemistry ~ She also added a very precious word to the WORLD\'s DICTIONARIES ~ RADIOACTIVITY Alas she died of LEUKEMIA ~ But she left an awesome legacy. We can\'t all be WORLD CHANGERS ~ BUT ~ We all leave a legacy ~ even if it\'s only our portfolio of Poems on MPS ! Yours Creatively ~ BRIAN

Words, painting, music - these are the true legacies that man will leave behind I think. The CEO\'s will be forgotten - the artists (good or bad) will remain in some fashion.... trying so hard to see and catch the magic!
