It's the simplest of items that can make the best toys! Bags top the list! I especially liked the homily: "You never know when falling rocks/ might turn to stepping stone--". Your rhymed quatrains are very satisfying. Hugs- Joan

Kids will find the darnedest things to play with.
Your poem was skillfully arranged, held a nice cadence and rhyme.

God has his way of magically appearing everywhere to guide you in the right direction. Nicely done... John

There many fantastic things that can happen, as your poem so marvelously states. It is, as always, well written and conveys its message very clearly. Evi

The surprises of life. As they say 'you never know.' But one thing you do know is that nature, love and happiness will have a surprise waiting for you. You never know do you? Well done, Brooke.

Ya know. . .I'm beginning to think there's a trend developing. You seem pretty consistently intrigued by the idea of love popping up unexpectedly lately. Hmmm. . .

Another lovely poem about the mysterious and often overlooked or missed ways of love - and how being open and positive has a defining impact :-)

    Leineco, thank you :-) Sadly, no love is popping up for me, but I'm happy with the "old" love of my family :-) Brooke

This is full of uplifting thoughts. Always be open to surprises because we never know what good will come along when we least expect it. Of course, not all surprises are good ones, but that is part of life.

    Ward, thank you so much :-) Yeah, there is always the mugger hiding in the bushes kind of surprise, but someone else can have the gig of writing about those things. LOL :-) Brooke
