This is a very sweet poem! You have captured the simplicity of our every day lives that everyone seems to forget exists much. You didn't have to stretch your rhymes and you kept a good measure as well. Kudos

This is absolutely true, if we just stand still for a moment and listen to the sounds around us, we will be pleasantly surprised what we will find.
This is a wonderful poem. It was great flow and rhyme with a lovely complimentary picture and presentation. And a great sentiment.
Best Wishes
Nicki

    Hi Nicki , I've always loved the sound of melodious poems. I also love the sounds and sights of nature. When I need to find tranquility, a bright , warm sunny day always lifts my spirits. When you find peace inside it's easy to pass it on to someone else. I'm thrilled you enjoyed my poem. Thank you for the lovely review!

The poem is well done, and with you lovely picture I can almost smell the little forest. My sister Tammy had her eye surgery, and her second eye is pitching a fit. Please pray for her. Karen
