Fay, even though I don\'t think I could ever put a snake around my neck, I admire your incredible writing! Now I don\'t have to do it, I felt it as I read it.

Fay, only you could look at a spider web and come up with such a beautiful poem.

Great use of the language as always but having read it I feel I need to read it again to fully appreciate it. About to do so.....

Fay, this piece is absolutely mind-boggling and breath-taking at the same time...and, there are so many different things that you could possibly get by reading it...in fact, I want to read it again...anyway...also, the picture of the web with the ORBS surrounding it in atmosphere is very very interesting....and makes sense when you know what orbs are..I have seen them near larger animals such as cats and dogs but never around a spiderweb....Thank you for your submittal...enjoyed immensely

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks FAY ~ My Mum taught me that Ladies are much more sensitive than Men and are easily hurt by Love & Life ~ Your poem bears witness to this. Her advice was \"Never tamper with a Girl\'s affections ~ If you profess to love them ~ prove it in word and deed\" I took her advice and in my experience the more genuine TLC you give to a Lady ~ she repays tenfold in the unique way only a Lady can ! I love the hope in your final verse ~ she is knocked down by betrayal but ~ thank God ~ not knocked out and she rises above Man\'s ingratitude and betrayal. Thanks FAY we all need to be reminded of Man\'s inhumanity and a Lady\'s vulnerability in Life & Love ! Love every word of your poems and the illustrations ~ yours BRIAN

Yes Fay, it is real dark in the hole one is trying to dig out of, but once one reaches the top, there is sunshine.
Beautiful poem!

Good strong write. When trust is lost it is almost impossible to get it back.

the third stanza stands out for me despite its rather gruesome content - where do the words come from? Super write.

Every tiny thing, an important cog in a large microcosm. It\'s says big things about a heart that contemplates the most dainty of miracles. Peaceful verse, Fay.

Just returned from a Japanese meditation garden - a superb garden in Nottinghamshire and this is something I could have read there in the tranquility .

So much of the miracle of nature goes unnoticed and taken for granted, as your fine poem reminds us. Well done, Fay!

Thanks FAY ~ on Saturday I mentioned the TARDIGRADE smell ~ insignificant ~ largely unsung but much more prepared than you or I to withstand the inevitable environmental stress. The BIBLE exhorts us to consider the \"Lillies of the Field\" and the \"Ants\" Theresa May\'s Cabinet could learn much from them about cooperation. Thanks for sharing the lovely quote and the elegant Poem it generated in your fertile poetic mind ! More rhyme than usual made it a delight to recite ! Yours BRIAN

I Am Desire.
malubotelho said:

Wow! Wow! Wow! This is so desirable. Beautiful strong poem. A dangerous thing to deal with is that desire. Must be maintained leashed and released only on the limited doses when necessary. A hard one to rule though. It is what I call: to still the fire from the devil and make good use of it.

Fay, what have you been doing? I recognise in your words that youve been creeping into my mind and seducing me! Such wicked intent utmost in your actions. All i can say to you is - see you later on !

No \'hot desires\' now though! lol. I\'m Chairperson of the: \"Keeping-anything-remotely-hot-or-likely-to-cause-excitement-under-firm-control\" Committee! I bet there\'s only me in the group! heehee.

A fine write Fay. Let\'s desire to write poems, and more will surely flow - or continue, if we\'ve dried up a bit!

Yes, I\'ve met the subject of your poem a few times. Damn powerful she is, too ... as well described in this fine offering, Fay. Enjoyed it!
