In The Making.

An artist or an artisan, whichever they are called, their work can be compared to music. You give them a voice here, their tools are surely their instruments, their performances, however, linger in forms not like a recording, but more tangible, and are never lost into the wind. You have built a remarkable piece, a song whose voice is dynamic and full of beauty. I enjoyed every sliver of it. Bravo! - Phil A.

So well written, Fay, I even had the smell of freshly cut wood in my nose when reading it. I love to work with wood, but unfortunately whenever I build something it usually comes out at least a little bit crooked, or off-kilter.

As a once-wood worker, I can hear the music of which you speak in this masterful piece, Fay. Speaks to my soul too, as AP states. Another wonderful piece from your magic pen! Kudos.

Oh Fay, you\'re speaking to my soul here, as I love woodgrain when finely sanded and stained. The craftsmanship you speak of here in your poem is deservingly described by your own craftsmanship of poetic word. This poem is a masterpiece in the making. ; )

I really don\'t know what to say, Fay!
Your poems don\'t only touch the readers heart, they worm right into it.

Playing At Love.
MendedFences27 said:

So true, Fay. Unintended yet spoken love can be hurtful, destructive, and vicious. I can only offer that I\'ve seen this between a couple, both plating at the same game. Interesting to watch the interplay and explosive ending. It seems time exposes every weakness. Great write. - Phil A.

Playing At Love.
FredPeyer said:

Fay, I love this poem, which seems to be a little bit different from your usual writing style, but is equally exquisite.
Something that came to my mind when reading it is that kids learn through play. Maybe the same is true for love? We start out playing at love and learn before finding that true and lasting love. Just a thought!

Great writing and a reminder. Don’t play with love. Love can be playfull but not played off.

So many people are afraid of spiders. I just hope that your beautiful poem takes some of that fear away. They (the spiders) and your poem are awesome!
