Wonderful words Fay, the capturing of animals is so destructing in Nature.

Your own compulsion to sing is a marvel of nature, and we are fortunate that you are free to do it. This little tour de force is a bittersweet reminder that not every creature has that freedom but nevertheless sings in its own way. This reminds me of the MPS article about poets in prison. I think of John Clare, for example, who continued to compose stunning verse committed to an asylum. https://mypoeticside.com/featured/behind-bars

Both well said and well done, Fay. Can you make a further plea for fish in small home aquariums, while you are in the neighborhood?
A small fishing net and a hammer, perhaps? (Serious issue, in case you are in any doubt.)

Dear Fay you strike at the core of a poetic heart. It is a whim, the sight of a flower or tree, a thought that comes in an early morning dream that provides the floss to weave a beautiful tapestry of words. It is a gift of which you are truly endowed. I just love it and it is a fav.

\"I remember desire bound us together,\"
Ahhh, I literally adore this one!!
Fay, your unending wisdom and sweet words always fill me with delight.
This one is so beautiful, and so profound.
I think that even if death seperates us from our loved ones, our bond remains intact.
It\'s like this \"nectar\" that you are conveying, it\'s ever-present and ethereal.
Thank you for this gem

such an enticing visual layout, dear Fay
I like that sand glass metaphor
bridging poesy\'s differing generations
while your words, accentuate
distinct qualities
that differentiate, between
visionary poet\'s inking humanity\'s
legacy insights
and those, other
trending poets whose fame hungry
antics and shortcuts, insure
their irrelevance in posterity\'s
oh so judgemental, eyes...

\'mysterious boundary of frenzy and
clash with sting of saline\'
\'leaves shallows to find
relief with tighter union, binding our sight\'
Brilliant!!!
such choice wording, an immersive
reading experience
thank you, dear Fay
and a true nugget of wisdom, to utilise
in our lives..
\'flow with the waves
taste the salt in our tears
to realise
this what it means to feel
to brave
those tides in our path...\'
