Comment from Nebukadneser
My, lady this is such a beautiful poem it took my breath away and I stood in awe as I admire the poet who can write such beautiful stuff of the way dreams are made. Knowing your history puts such a sad turn, yet one of beauty, music and holiness in the air of two very lucky friends driving away into the happy memories of sharing and being together just to appreciate one another, drinking champagne and dance oh so slowly under a wide branched tree.
you painted this whole picture in my head, lady with the diamonds in her hair.
Well done
you're a super star
Cool bananas and warm regards

Hello Kevin,
Thank you for loving " trading wishes".
I appreciate that while noting specifics such as imagery and word choices, you are completely aware that this poem is about more than a back-roads drive in a red convertible...
Thank you for calling " trading wishes" a beautiful read.
Enjoy this glorious spring afternoon.

This speaks the grace and gravity as well essence and fragrance of love and how it would be beyond any sort of barter or exchange system or trading, modestly and narratively retold, nice imagery and visual projected, I liked. 4/104

What a wonderful, delightful, reading experience. I so enjoyed the mental ride of spring. Friendship, even long distance, can bring such joy of thought. Great job!

Comment from nighttripper
Beautifully written and colorful with the inclusion of spring flowers and a candy-apple convertible. Letter writing is a lost art and I hope you have continued to keep it alive. A special way to share friendship and you conveyed those thoughts and feelings so well in this lovely work of poetry. Peace, Mike.

Comment from Carole Rosa
Jill, This is an up lifting story within a poem about possibilities. I had 4 convertibles in my life time and I loved to ride with the top down, fresh air in my face, and my hair blowing over my eyes!! Loved your poem. Carole

The writer delivers a message that is fresh and clear. The writer paints a beautiful picture in the mind of the reader. although this piece has no rhyming, it flows well as the photo catches my attention but the words hold it to the end.
