Hi insert,
like many other writers and readers out there, I don't know where I'd be without abc tales. For me it's been an addiction from the moment I joined in 2010 and has always felt like one big family that comes and goes over time. I...

This is gorgeous Penny. I too am a night person, though I do not have the distractions of the day like you do. It's just me and my partner in our old age, but the night time inspires, as I can see it does for you. Being able to let go and just be...

Posted on Sun, 17 May 2020

Posted on Wed, 08 Apr 2020
I like how you write of nature looking on the positive side. If we allow ourselves to just be rather than thinking too much, then life what ever the situation isn't all that bad. An optimistic poem indeed.
Hope you are keeping well Rachel...

Hi Rachel,
you know when I was young I had a best friend named Gina, we were almost like twins and could read each others minds. I really do hope your friend gets better soon.
I like how in this poem you keep the faith of optimism...
