FREEDOM

I like the picture of the kite enjoying floating about, and battling the winds, but still under the control of the string-holder, who is caring for it, or it would fly too far and get lost, broken!

Julie.
A nice tale you weave here and...

"...to let the mind flow of poet's like Pinda
not long ago..."

What a lovely considerate thought to include Pinda.

New ScoZen
Thankyou so much.
Well Pinda was a great
poet,slipped it into the
last stanza. But poem bit
long. Muddled. Your good writer.
Thanks kind comments.
Have a good week-end.

Well the cat has a week off
but mine walks in with him now.
I must admit put Pinda in went better.
Than poet's so long ago. What do you think!
He had tattoos but couldn't think how
bring them in. Like must have hurt!
Been week of mental happenings.
Not so bad some as it seemed. So in my dressing
gown just doing a bit now.
Did I say daughter's taken on Gt Dane
big and tall. Wouldn't stay, went make a cuppa.
Only young, waited outside all went to bus stop.
Paper now says Kangaroo knocked someone over in Australia she badly bruised. Not the one make sent there? Frightened under circumstances Gt Dane could do although soft and gentle.
Yes,I do go on about 'Jazz' "Green eyes"
That's my best poem.Comfort crafty,full of love knows
what likes and wants. But sometimes even he will turn his back to-wards me ah! and hides his antics
make me laugh! Sometimes dry out! wants the table, or
see out window,hide behind curtains, straight in kitchen drop milk,runs gone,into bedroom, sorting out
which bed he knows a jumper on the other one! Likes look around, got good winter coat,won't pick him up
mine does or to put out night time!
Funny mine his back dodgy laid down,cat
there, but mine has a stomache big when in chair,
cat went up and down,when laying on it, made me laugh and laugh!
But soon jumped down, heard my voice.
Good luck yours to in the competition.
Paper states hugs xx good many things.
I have to ask most don't think essential,I love them.

I like the image here:

I stroke and tickle him
under the chin
gone off to sleep
to dream

It's how I like to be put to sleep.

I've been lagging behind in my reading habits and have some catching up to do.

Well done Julie and all the best for the comp. :-)

Hello! Rich,Thankyou lovely
comment. Computer went wrong,
track seemed stuck. So pleased see
working ok! replies going up now.
Well I am talking of the cat of course,
never talked him,now amazing, owner let me
mention, or do poem 'Green Eyes' Jazz.
Bit of siamese in him,cry! like Allo Allo Allo!
If find time read all about! it as they say?
Also one London trip, Wheatsheaf we got back, ll.30pm. Great evening.
Something dashed by, cat thought a fox at first.
Called him in for a while not ours.
Full moon? I went in,and hubby said come quick!
fox going down road ugh! didn't see much big one.
But 3pm in day last week, only small town,mine had
a small fox nearly knock him over,two teenagers photoed. Coming from playing fields, bit frightening.
Oh! Jazz sits, right in from windoow, clear all for
him, if on computer sat his bottom, in front so can't
use much, as have share with hubby, not mine.
Hnece mistakes if in a hurrry.
Yes, I had a break while, wrong messages, etc; worrying. Not knowing, and they don't answer emails.
Ok now. Daughter's looking after Gt Dane bit big! softy but to big me to see much off! scared.
Just got wopnderful Anthology book arrive,
'Let's start again'. And omg Im in. Now can read
all great poems, names and Abctaler's in. Good colour
front and back, paper book. 204 pages. Worth every 1p.
Hope you pick up soon! See you write children's books. I have seen odd things animals about, read The
Brush of a wild animal. Fox, cat Jazz, ferrets, plastic duck large on roof car, laughed. Duck on a lead. So you can use some?
you mention sleep, get light music, no words,sit in chair,someone light touch,places fingers lightly,
on forehead, from centre out,and shoulders massaged,
relax all parts body, person doing it, uses words,breathe in and out, slowly letting go all,bring
in images, fountains birds watergfalls. Massager tells them forget all,it can be a sea sound,birds whatever, have eyes shut. Wake feeling afresh and cup of tea. Had it all done! Spiritually, and have done it works. Far better than all pills.
Or once told, vicar to open bible,read psalm, the lord will wath over me,if wake up early. Nothing will hinder me, or harm me etc; Said next time,did it
work. Oh! all there, yes, looked all worried and pleased when I said yes, "I knew it would". I didn't think so either but did.
closing for now, what's weather like.
Used to go to Harrogate when young, take my brother's
and sister to aunt's stay week, wnet by coach or train and coach. Lovely place. The gardens.
Think may been York, The Viking museum.
Few years back holiday and all met up then.
Do get reading and writing.

new Nolan
Hello! Yes you are so right,thanks

I have done thee, 'FREEDOM'
poems on the late 'Pinda'Peace is what
all can search for, comes from within and
spritiual of course! Or as you mention turning
of from hum! drum every day life! by doing soemthing different maybe. Just being quiet 'Silence Is Golden'.
So you have a choice and tell me
which you think is best?
Keep your poems coming too!
The wind has died down so much damage.
Good be home in the warm.
Mine was absolutely silly,knew had appointment
for a flu jab, and bad shoulder, from the bus jerk?
And snooker later? Oh! Dr.Flu jab @ 3.15pm onto the snooker on way after. And a waiting physio shoulder1
No good telling him so be it?
And peaceful week-end to you.
Mine set his computer right on the table his,
and talks in between, or puts a meal down,just as trying something on his computer. Put's computer mouse pad higher! but he can work and eat not fair?

Silence is golden yes. King Solomon understood these things &&

I loved the image of the cat tramping a nest on the bed. Really good and cherries as well. I think that you posted this just as I arrived on the site. I love reading your stuff and thanks for all you support on my meagre contributions.

New Scratch
Wow! gee! brightened me up,your
great comment. Especially "Green Eyes" Jazz"
neighbour's cat? Hubby Ray now let's him in,sits
on his lap,if Ray says no! jumping up! he knows.
As claws bit long,but he looks at Ray,like an owl
turning his head,the moment Rays stops massaging his
his head and scratching his body! as if saying! saying please carry on"? I have the lighter touch.
Given to me a gift holy one. In all adversity. If we go out separately "Jazz" be there,run half way down the road. We say stop! He still comes back us all the time, truly wonderful cat,bit siamese in.
Daughyter's husband just lost one of two rescue cat's from a kittens they had,they have three.
Well certainly good writer, for not been on site long! I had too blink! three times make sure,got three cherries? after trying three for late "Pinda"
Freedom poem comps: checked with Editor t.cook (tony)
He was delighted? but recommendation too!.
Cherries! sometimes for inspiration and trying harder too. I was gobsmakced and overwhelmed.
Then added to "Green Eyes" poem since 2009 think?
In to-day and did snuggle! on new cover blanket I got him,only £3 bit fluffy! saw his owner as "Jazz"
come in day time,and nap 3 hours,I say beautiful boy!
But if he is nodding off and I touch him,might have a claw out. So he come in say after 2 3 hours nap,
if I check open his eyes,whisper love you,he puts his head round into his chest, I giggle. Loves to wander,in kitchen. Smell vase if any flowers in,watch me running watering can, sit on wall. Lays right acroos computer. Up on the table. Go to doors if wants go out,yesterday layed outside after he went no sun,curl4ed into ball rolling over I was laughing all the time. First cat in life! I have ever spoken too. He used cry! allo! allo! allo! such a loveable boy! tell owner is it ok. as in a few hours with us,he knows about poem. Which I have read
out at "The Wheatsheaf" take a deep breath first!
And also in AbcTales 23 buy book of many in, so exciting reading other's writing poems and stories.
Cat is getting on so I enjoy your well written work.
I'm just reading mag: re-writers block,how to scribble page of rubbish,then paragraph it. Know what
want to say,put into story or poem not easy!
Keep up your writing. I am all mended now,tripp steps
here,both hands full,lead from bedroom down,I was going up backless slippers,wham! bang down went,cut mouth or gums, took two days,feel ok. Ray seeing friend in a home f and in wheelchair,had to phone,time got back took taxi stopped bleeding and I prayed. Thopught two teeth would go,hit pint heavy clay mug! Off to a lunctime jazz concert like,hour to-morrow,no Ray come,then Thrusday both goping concert "Katy Setterfield Worthing Pavilion,late "Dust Springfield" songs my time, love them all. Thankyou so much. take care. Not good at punctuation and more or less most on my life! or whatever or try (IP) But Editor t.cook (Tony's) help
and reading other writer's work helps me so much! Still nippy out I came back, lfet Ray go on his own shops. Snooker Captain! So if one talks to there,cat,
beautifulwhere have you been? I have missed you,you are lovely, he will respond. And too yes, can and no you can't, cried out last night tea time,go,or bump door come in.
