I bow.
You see, you make say all sort of things! Now you’re bowing! 🙂 What next? 🙂
Aha….! If I said that it would burn the page on the computer screen !
Burn! That word also is deep!
Deep is nice, you are right, there should always be something behind the words
Powerful blast of tragedy in that last line after the lullaby softness of the previous two lines. Delightful.
Thanks Gemma. You got it spot on 🙂
An A for originality.
🙂 Thank you Kim.
