Deserves a six, but it is only Tuesday. No matter how lousy the news...and it is lousy, when I see you have posted, I know I am going to smile. Thanks Poet.

Comment from rod007
A profound and deep message in this poem. We wonder who could have weaved this magnificent coverlet. Was it the sun, a fairy, a butterfly or the dawn? No only God could have created such a wonder and by the way he created the sun and the dawn and all other things in this world too. Well done, Brooke.

You had me going there for a minute - as I had every inclination that this golden caper would have been resolved from and by the golden locks of your delightful grandchild's beautiful mane. Well done.
Till the last amen

You never disappoint in telling tales
that take us places of beauty, even
in the make-believe world where
your words of gold float in the air
like fairy dust to put a hue of beauty
on everything it touches.
So nice to look forward each
day to another tale that illuminates
the screen of this site.
Well done

So you enjoyed the beauty that God laid before you.
Love this little ditty on the yellow coverlet. It renders beauty from Heaven to which no other hath made.
Beautiful write. Thank You for sharing.

Dear Brooke
Your poem is beautifully presented with excellent rhythm and abab rhyme. I like the flow and imagery, and the way it arouses the imagination as readers are left to figure out the answer. (I checked out "coverlet" - a new word for me, which I think is possi ly the equivalent of a "quilt" in the UK :)). Lovely complementary photo!
God bless, Christine :)

Christine, thank you so much :-) yes, it is usually quilted and is called a cover"let" instead of cover because it isn't large enough to cover the pillow. I just love the sound of it :-) I appreciate your generous sixth star. Brooke

Lol! You're very welcome :)

Comment from Jacqueline M Franklin
Hi Brooke,
Beautiful photo. I love this stanza.
I asked the sun if she had spun
the silken threads so rich and bold,
but she replied that she had none
to spare among her stores of gold.
As always, your work is so enjoyable to read.
Cheers & Blessings
