Gday all... Ill try and get some reading in but may be difficult a overnite stay in the city of Melbourne for work this week
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday! I'm so far behind--I will be back to read the Cascade poems as well as today's. I love the open-link ones, and the very difficult Cascades turned out to be amazing.
ReplyDeleteI became a Godmother again yesterday and the poems I've linked are all about that special gift.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday everyone! Hope this will be a fantastic week!!
ReplyDeleteHello Toads!
ReplyDeleteI love open-link Monday because it gives me the chance to share some of my poems that highlight the issue of gender inequality in India. It is an important issue that deserves a voice, and needs to be heard all over the world.
Thank you everyone, for reading and commenting on my poems. It gives me hope that this topic has reached sensitive, independent minds with voices of their own.
Wish you all a happy week ahead :)
I love the photo! Yes, let's make Monday happy ;D
ReplyDeletegood morning, pals! that photo feels particularly apt today :)
ReplyDeleteWell, I do hope there are some flowers under all that snow, Marian, or at least the promise of them.
ReplyDeleteAn oldie to celebrate the beginning of Lent / Mardi Gras / Spring / Pancakes / Cornish Tea????
ReplyDeleteHey toads...luv you all.
ReplyDeleteGracewhat lovely picture I love it!
ReplyDeleteOh, I so don't miss all that snow. Don't mind a dusting now and again. Stay safe and warm, those of you in the snow belt.
ReplyDeleteWrote a poetic obituary for one of the coolest dudes in Madison, a musician, songwriter... hope you check it out. Thanks for Open Link Monday... the diversity of work is wonderful! Amy

ReplyDelete“I’d Have Never Known”
A perfumed memory from the past
Warm and round like a pink flannel
Ball one’s induced to caress
A heap of fresh made cotton candy
Huddled so close enough to nibble
That I refused to resist
What does a ten year old know?
Somehow, I understood the valuable
And what was priceless
A palpable, and tiny pearl-looking Eskimo
Curled within two young, innocent shells,
One heart that also tasted death.
