Wonderful Shoe- gave me a good feeling- champagne- a typo

Thanks Pia, corrected that now, and a small edit also.

Hello shoe.
Enjoyed this little short.
Nothing upsetting I hope.

I remember reading Bullfinch back in September and being pretty intimidated but also inspired to get better and I think I have and a lot of that is down to reading yours, Tinas, seashores and a few others on here who are producing such good poems. I think i'm saying (badly) thanks and that I love your poems. :-)

Hi Scozen, glad you enjoyed, I feel much better now,:}

FB, I know what you mean about being inspired by the quality of writing on here, I include you in that!:}
and it means the world to me that you regard my work in that way, I have been struggling to write lately, but this one popped out fully formed this morning,

This is definitely one of my favouries of yours, shoe. Marvellous imagery;-)

Your brain must be a master machine of imagery: the dough, the champagne...too brilliant.

Hi shoe,

What a wonderful description you conjure up here,
I love the idea of champagne conjuring exquisite
bubbles out of nothing.

A great little read and well deserved of cherries.

Jenny.

Wonderful!

So brilliant, this is, shoe - many congrats on the cherry :)

'champagne also, ferments in this way
conjuring exquisite bubbles out of nothing
but the simple, basic act of breathing
fizzing over like a shook up bottle of tizer
popping candy of the heart'

I adore the imagery in these lines! Excellent stuff :)

Two wonderful images, Shirley, expertly crafted and intertwined. Well done!

brilliant - I love this poem

Beautiful and terribly original imagery - which, of course, what constitutes a beautiful poem.
