What you find in the seemingly mundane amazes me. Hats off to these everyday miracle workers that are so needed and so under praised.

malubotelho said:

Take one from two and sorrow tightens
love uncouples,
oneness frightens,
lips stay unkissed and distress climbs.
I love this verse specially. Lovely Fay.

You are lovely FAY and you can create a fragrant poem out of the noisy and dirty and sweaty. Mundane people deplore HOLESINTHEROAD and those who day-by-day seek to repair them only to see more appear ! Your poem paints an enchanting PICTURE eulogising them !

So hats off in thanks to the
all-weather hat and jacket
road menders ~ who grow moire
fluorescent with each passing day !

Love you for being you ~ Yours BRIAN

Boy, does it ever hit with no compromise! Right in the heart and gut, with doubling-over pain. Your poem nails it, Fay! It resonates for sure.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks for sharing FAY ~ a poignant picture and an elegant but sad poem ~ straight for your loving heart. I know you speak from experience and your poem throbs with reality. Thanks for caring ~ Thinking of you ~ Yours as ever BRIAN

Too Long.
FredPeyer said:

Lately there were several poems with rain as subject matter. Yours definitely stands out! Great writing.

Too Long.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks FAY ~ for a lovely Complimentary Picture & Poem. I have spent dry days in Cornwall but also many wet ones ! However \"wet or dry\" Cornwall is on of the most beautiful Counties in England ! I guess being a Peninsular ~ surrounded on all sides by water ~ accounts for your high precipitation. Essex is much drier but much duller ! Because you are the \"Queen of Cornwall\" I have dedicated today\'s Poem \"Tristan & Isolde\" to you ~ OK ~ Yours as ever ~ BRIAN.

I can listen to the rain and see your Valley. Beautiful images feels my mind. Soft and homely. Thanks for sharing

WriteBeLight said:

Hope it stops raining! I agree that too much rain in one\'s life can do us much harm. I guess Mother Earth has her ways, though. Great job on this Fay!

Louis Gibbs said:

An exquisite rendition of the old phrase; \"Rain, rain, go away. Come again another day.\" We\'ve had a similar wet summer here in south Alabama. Lovely, Fay!

Had to come in from the garden - guess what - it was raining. Great poem.

orchidee said:

You having too much \'proper rain\' as they say? Or I thought you was gonna write about some of my poems - too long?! heehee. A fine write again Fay.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks FAY it is indeed LADY HOLDING A ROSE by Emma Sandys ~ by a coincidence my POEM tomorrow is based on ISOLDE and the LOVE POTION ~ by Her husband FREDERICK SANDYS ~ must be a pre-Raphaelite Muse in the air ? Love both the Form & Function of the Poem ~ Yours as ever ~ BRIAN
