    Thank you, Val! I’m especially happy you liked my 31st. I hope you don’t mind I doubled up on the 26th. I’m very grateful you read these, and thanks for your encouragement.

    I really enjoyed reading these responses. As a justifiably neglected musician, I know how much music and art can infuse themselves in one's writing. @Thorn Wilde's work is always thought provoking. The questions posed brought this out. It was great to see new author @Wayne Gray included too. Thanks again for this feature!

    April 22 Not silence is not a commotion nor is not quietude restlessness; it isn’t either all or none of these I feel, not measured words and cold argument, nor reverberations of the heart. April 23 The hill is colored in uncertainty; every tree blushes in spring fashions, and shy woodland flowers are coaxed from cold ground onto the forest floor to dance; yet every pink bud and each new green leaf looks over i

    Good morning, everyone! @Thorn Wilde, please, did you save me a wee dram?

    I can relate to how this feels. You’ve rendered it really well in this poem.

    I enjoyed your finale to April. Poem 29 really hit me, forced me to read it several times. Poem 26 tickled my senses; I felt the cool, saw the colors, smelled the grass and earth. That was lovely. Poem 28 made me smile. And of course, Poem 30 is an awesome note to oneself. Thanks for all your encouragement .

    Day 26 - Day 30

    Parker Owens commented on Aditus's story chapter in Day 26 - Day 30

    What Might Have Happened If? really resonated with me; it's one of those questions that haunts me over and over, and you deal with it so wisely and concisely. That is the beauty of your poetry. Like Gary and Dolores, I liked Blue very much. I felt the breeze and the cool of the white railing. The Way It Is has an infectious energy about it that I must admire. Calm Down has a deep, authoritative voice in its brief way; and I love how the mirror ends The Gambler. Thanks for all of your poems this month, Adi.

    1. I'd paste in the problem that's gotten the most queries, but the formatting doesn't seem to work...

    Thank you for posting this. It's true - and you inspired me to tell one of my colleagues something good that I hope made his morning.

    Good morning, everyone. Doing tutorials on methods of integration this morning. Would much rather be writing...

    This is a poem beautiful in love, blessing and peace. It’s an embrace in four stanzas.

    I enjoyed this snippet of their lives. Eric and Nelson really did luck out with great sets of parents. Thanks for this Sunday treat.

    Good night everyone.

    GMA XX

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in GMA XX

    I enjoyed this chapter very much. I really liked seeing CJ weaving a net around Brad. Not every returning vet has that, and it’s a scandal. The arrival of Owen’s brother gives us a chance to see how much interesting change we’ve seen since this series began. Thanks for another great one.

    Numbers 22 and 24 are awesome. They connected with me right away. Cats are not liquid, yet they often move with liquid grace. Your characterization of Certainty is spot on. Number 23 made me want to start up a conversation with the albatross, though perhaps he’d prefer if I didn’t. The strategic retreat in Number 21 was really well illustrated. Number 25 certainly expressed the tragedy of what can befall poetry.

    Thank you for bringing them back together. There is nothing so good as lovers’ reconciliation. Except what what they do at home afterwards, maybe.

    Trust

    Parker Owens commented on Wayne Gray's story chapter in Trust

    You write Wren’s change of mind and heart very well; you make me want to be like Charles, who just won’t let the brokenness go without trying to mend it. But now I want to know what happened with Wren’s father.

    This is an excellent post, worth meditation and consideration. Thank you.

    By the way, I’m guessing Aditus.

    I’m enjoying it!
