Beautifully selected words here with a flow that is so smooth, I had to go back to see if it was the rhyming, which for me, it usually is. Such a positive message. I am emboldened.

It is never too late. Sometimes true love comes after you have given up. I have a quiet weekend all to myself -- a rarity. I am torn between catching up on housework and reviewing. Trying to give both a bit of time.

    I've given up...but the dream lingers.
    The housework will be there.
    Enjoy your day.

All about
treasures of the lasting kind
and waking in an afterglow~
I wanna be
the kind of Gramma
that makes 'em blush
and say,
"Tell me again, Grammy...
the story of true love."

Another beauty.
So precious.
So full of life and honesty.

I love your photo's too...all of them.

. . .and are you that 'daydream believer'? There is a hopefulness in this write- -hope for a better day, hope for a change in the heart, hope for grandchildren and hope those daydreams will become a reality.

Love the 'don't let go moments'- -so ee

Daydreaming is a good thing as long as it doesn't be just that. Reality is what we long for in those moments of 'never waver'.

The artwork- -awesome- -is it yours?

A moving post and 'until then'. . .I use a quote from your profile. . .

'Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.'

T.S.Eliot

Sweetie, this is so true to life for my part. I have a hard time distinguishing between day dreams and night mares. I would like my day dreams to be my reality I must confess. Nicely thought out Jewell

Day Dreams Linger

Untold story find its time for telling
on time of fresh memory inviting you to share happiness with grand kids. And so this poem is well written
to materialize the eagerness of having day dreams
reached to the young.

This is a nicely written 'sigh'. I call writing like this a sigh because I have no other word for it. It is a thought you have in quiet moments so of repose, a daydream, if you will, pondering things that you believe would make your life more complete, things you may want. I liked "I wanna be
the kind of Gramma that makes 'em blush" - a great picture you paint here. Thank you for this posting and many blessings.
