Hi Rhiannon, such a beautiful flower and you've written such an apt poem to fit the Begonia.
I too loved the idea of the ballroom dresses, pink shades swirling. Reminds me of those young Victorian girls at the ball.

Fate can take many twists and turns, but in the end taking the plunge into life's great adventures is worth all the trepidation.
That third stanza reminds me of a sailor I once knew, he had a girl in every port and spent most of his money...

You've conjured magic and suspense Penny. I like the originality that works as not only a story, but could be a cartoon too.
Great suspense at the end leaving me looking forward to more.

Brilliant Jane. I felt like I was there and could see the whole scene in my mind. Poor Vanessa can't really relax with so much anxiety about Spencer and how he's perceived, I hope having a drink helps her.

Such a striking poem Turlough. Oh! For those simple days of going fishing with just a net on a summers day as a child and exploring the day away...you just can't beat those memories.

Oh! Dear, poor Archie has really been thrown in at the deep end without a life jacket. I hope he will be okay. I don't trust Precious for one minute.

Hi Turlough,
