Some of my best stuff comes when my mind is at ease and thoughts drifting. Clearing my mind does wonders for writing. It must be time for a detox. LOL! Going to the swing today...
Sending you my best for this marvelous piece,

    Oh, I envy you going to the swing. We are expecting T-storms today and I am getting ready for a rainy afternoon. Thanks so much Sally!!

You succeeded in beguiling me, metered line by metered line. Some poets do write from a point of relaxation while others find their muse in chaos. This is a soft-spoken soothing poem for sure.

    Hello Susan. I am glad you enjoyed it. I like writing in iambic meter... it is my first choice, but I am tempted to write one soon in trochaic which makes my brain think in the opposite way. It is very challenging for me. :). Thanks so much!!

    You are most welcome. I'm afraid I'm one of those who writes from the middle of chaos and metered poetry isn't my strong suit. :-)

Hello there! I really enjoyed this one, and the artwork of course is so fitting. Nothing better than a lazy afternoon on a hammock reading poetry! I immediately imagine myself in this exact position with your wonderfully descriptive words. Thanks for sharing, well done.

    Hello Pat. Thanks so very much. I seem to gravitate toward this type of poetry... I am not experienced enough to know if this type of writing has a name.. LOL, but I keep on trying to write of peace. Thanks again, my friend!!
