Good write Fay.
You\'ll soon be typing again, like someone I knew, at 85wpm!
How could they even think, or see what they were writing, at that speed?! lol.

awesome!
this is why I always encourage your reposts
otherwise I would have missed out on this eloquent gem
and how fitting, in this March
of all-things celebrating
feminine wisdom and incalculable worth...!
thank you, dear Fay
(and hope you feel better soon, rest-up well
strains and twists
are the worst for rushing back and reinjuring)

Great message but i\'ll wait till i\'m older to take your advice. I\'ve so much youth and vigour to sqander being carefree and careless. Now where\'s that Sanatogen.

Somebody coloured my hair with vanishing cream.

Beyond the colouring of my hair, which I will not do, I\'ll follow you completely, Fay. I feel better already.

Definitely, I myself will be investing in a new pair of running shoes, cos that old pair are too slow.

What a magnificent display Fay! This hawk feels so real and alive! I also enjoy the creative incorporation of text symbols to convey the message. Hope your wrist gets better! Have a great day!

oh no, both you and Neville
taking damage
someone, must be trying to take out
the very best of MPS
before they starts their poetic warmongering...
lol
(hope you get well soon, dear Fay)
and thank you, I too remember this read
especially these wondrous lines:
\'snatching bait
in what seems frenzy
quickly shoots tree-ward
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
before
dark blackens sky
to ebony crystal.

As sinks
the cherry-plum sun
I admit

that for chicks
to exist
hunger has to be sated\'

I can feel the ambivalence Fay, in your perfectly calibrated piece (which I\'ve not read before). Nature in the raw, and that\'s the way it goes...
I hope you heal fast.

You captured the essence so well dear Fay
So thankful for these lines of gratitude
And reading it makes me feel lucky
The thought I had been missing
It tells me, spring back and attack on your work
“You can do”
Since your alive
Thanks a lot dear Fay

Oh Fay yes yes yes..... So very true in my life. I feel every word of your poem in my heart and bones. And now i want to go outdoors and soak it all up after two years of hiding away in fear of this pandemic. (I shall of course be taking precautions not to become a victim of it)

A must for my favourites.

My Dear Fay,

My first read of the day. The title of your poem invited me to read your beautifully scripted words. ‘Being Alive’ is a gift…a gift not to be taken for granted because we don’t know what’s in store for us even within the next minute. So let’s appreciate and enjoy every breath we take…and right now I’m enjoying perusing through today’s postings.
Thank you for sharing your pen. Your poems are always a delight to read.🤗

Rozina said:

Very true. As I age I appreciate more and more my surroundings, what I took for granted before. You’ve hit the nail on the head, so poetically.

Bella Shepard said:

So beautifully said. You\'ve captured that rush of life that comes to those of us who perhaps find our years dwindling. I loved this poem!
