liked this very much! Made me think of neatly hovering, the short bursts of 2 lines and the pzazz of the rhymes. Have not seen any type of bee yet. Though the midges have been up for weeks. I don't think they would be so polite
Thankyou very much Rachel! Am so glad you liked itp[--------------------------]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]555555555555555 - message from Tina, cat
loved this. the rhythm is like a poem, and as a way of summing up a character in a few words I don't think it's possible to beat :"Pure waste of time. I like that." wonderful. And the way to be the best mother ever. Really enjoyed, thankyou

I love startlings, you have captured them perfectly!
"an iridescence of speckles
that flirt in green and purple."
"a multitude may merge
as one rise and swell of smoke,
and hidden in your memory - the shadow of...

I found this very moving too, and beautiful as your poems always are!
"all we share is dread,
and we will wait, postpone, cancel
before one hand might hold another,
to transmit nothing other
than love"
