Thanks for sharing FAY ~ I agree and I value my Mum above all the other Lovely Ladies that cross my path. I can never be a Mum but I value my Dad as well and see that being a Father would also be an awesome responsibility. Thanks for caring ~ Yours B.

orchidee said:

A fine write. Just don\'t let Daniel O\'Donnell sit in that rocker - or worse still, start singing, or it will spoil the whole thing! heehee. Oops, no offence to the Irish!

Twice Stirred.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

THANKS FAY ~ For lifting our minds and spirits and also the quality of verse (on MPS) to a much higher plane. Greek Literature ~ Poetry ~ Art reached levels we seldom touch today if ever. The vision you paint in you picture and comment ~ of Calliope dancing naked is much too perfect for me to pass comment ! Writers and especially poets do not care where reality ends and fantasy begins and they spin for us ~ make-believe dreams. Because I am a Writer (and not an artist) I love the premise in your second verse ~ that writers have extra dimensions ! This does enable us to \"twice stir\" (and autheticate) UTOPIA and even grant reality to EDEN ~ Amen. I don\'t know what you\'re on FAY (is it Scrumpy ?) but your Poetry is DIVINE ~ Yours B.

My thank you to all for the comments - this poem was written as tribute to those who fought in ages past for some better future and lost their own lives.

Who\'s this Thine guy? Lucky fellow. A beautiful message sent back in time by the use of forsaken language, but the message is as old as time. When? A beautiful thing, this. - Phil A

Had me sighing and reaching for the paper (yes I still write using a fountain pen - what\'s one of them? I hear the youngsters ask)

Thanks FAY ~ another very fine poem of Cornish lore. Life was much harder then and the rewards fewer. We all have to count our Blessings for what we all have today ~ Yours B.

Perhaps.
MendedFences27 said:

Here where I live there is, on much older homes, an architectural phenomenon called a \"Widow\'s Walk.\"
Basically its a small porch high up on the structure allowing access for the woman to view the seaward horizon, looking for her husband\'s ship returning. Some never did, thus \"Widow\'s Walk.\" Your poem so reminded me of this. I believe that means your message was well received. And it came wrapped in glorious words. Great poem. - Phil A.
