I love this childrens poem, Wendy with the oops and uh-oh's as the best buds track across the sand into the great unknown. What child wouldn't like the little turtles and following them across the sand. Me, I'd love to see that. Good to see your name come up again,

cheers,
valda

Thanks for giving it a read. I've been busy working on my family story and just peek in here from time to time. I hope all is well with you.

Hello Wendy,
wow, it's been a long time since I saw anything from you. Welcome back! This is a nice poem, and good to remember regardless of our age. We all need someone to give us a hand. Thanks for sharing.
Have a blessed day.
Tom

I have been busy writing our family story with my sibs, and rarely here. I saw the photo and felt inspired to peek in and say hi.

Hey, stranger, crawled out of your box at long last!?

Thought I'd send you a sixer to welcome you back to FS for this sweet little inspirational piece for the young and young at heart. The artwork here is essential to understanding the poem and perhaps some may consider that a weakness, but I'd beg to differ.

Hope you're intending to stay for a while and good luck in the contest!

Steve

Tied up with Storyworth, telling the family story with the sibs, so poems are few and far between. A friend challanged me to write a poem to this art and I thought I'd stop in to say hello. I will return, but not until my deadline in September has passed.

This is a sweet and comforting poem. Although it's written for children, it's a message we all need to hear! Very well done, and the picture is perfect. Thank you.
