My Dear Fay,
Your well penned poem and accompanying pic reminded me of my ancestors…the piscators. All gone!! Somewhat sad; but then I’m reminded of their contributions to this amazing planet.
Thank you for sharing.

Abandoned - a town, a neighborhood, a railway station, a fort, a building, a factory, a house, a car, a tricycle, a toy, and yes those beached ships and boats that I pass by, always trigger my mind to imagine their tales lost to time - that your post so eloquently lay out.

Spectacular. I\'ve always dreamt of going whale watching. I know there\'s many in Alaska and I can only imagine how wonderful it\'ll be to witness these gigantic creatures spring into eyesight.

huh!
how timely dear Fay
I think it\'s time to connect with dear Melville
again
let Ishmael\'s words, take me aboard
Ahab\'s quest
for futile, conceit\'s revenge
laughing along with those
memorable first few chapters
and falling back in love
with Queequeg, Starbuck
and that \'Pip\', character
linking, another of my fav\'s
(written
barely a decade, later
by that great Dickens
and his immortal, first few lines
in \'Great expectations\');
lastly, that angelic Aunt Charity
adding that graceful tenderness,
of feminine humanity..
yup! that\'s my reading sorted
for next few days..
(thank you!
after all that, yes
I thoroughly enjoyed
your Poetry\'s vivid depiction
as well.. lol
\'Then gigantic mammoth
dived again.
And
with another great crash
he emerged
head high, floated
awhile
as great blow-hole
sliced\')

Amazing creatures. How terrible has been our plundering relationship with these intelligent leviathans in the past.
Your words are of a joyois encounter encouraging all to consider our relationship with all life forms on mother earth anew.

So beautiful dear Fay….I learned the lesson of persistence from your poetry
And these were really my fav lines
“ As minds turn to love, so
I am told, the chase never slows
for Nature knows
lit coals will best smoulder
by slowly awakened boldness
to what all are prone.”

Oh your last stanza is a pearl of a life lived\'s wisdom.
My mind\'s eye is enchanted with a vision of two mature faces aware of initial attraction and respectfully unashamedly displaying they were reaching out to one another. As is the symphony of life played with feeling by vituoso.

The image melds beautifully with the poem. I can see your description of Yonder in it so vividly, a lovely place that is ever on the horizon, but seems to be just out of reach. For me, a place filled with longing and hope. Thank You!

I have such an affinity for waterfalls. My husband and I seek them out on vacations and hiking. You have described these falls so beautifully, I just want to be there. It\'s the whole experience; sight, sound, feel, everything you\'ve encountered in this poem that is truly memorable. Thank You!
