Well, I am not a poet, but it was fun.. I do however, just love that little hummingbird that inspired the words.<br />You will have an entire ROW of lilacs soon? Oh happy day! Roses, lilacs and lavender are my favorites.. I only have two lilac bushes, planted 3 years ago.. This is the first year I have had more than one or two blooms, so I am cutting as many as I can for the house.. <br />Wishing you a wonderful week, and thank you again for this beautiful post.<br />blessings,<br />PennyAngelsdoor * Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14770992037653364805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850533314533887978.post-87321697554521878092013-04-17T04:04:49.174-07:002013-04-17T04:04:49.174-07:00Good morning dear one.

We are up and running to go to the Hoppy Hour; I hope you are there. If not, can we talk this week?

Oh Irin...Oh....I see what my king has written here! Oh Irina, this celebration is so special because YOU are also in the spirit of it all! THANK YOU again for coming to visit my post and for giving me such positive feedback! That particular line you quoted gave me the biggest challenge, for TIME is not always on our side when we are posting a blog post. I could have worked on this poem even more, but there is a point at which you just have to be finished. But to gather all the sights and sounds, smells and textures in one line? Difficult, but not impossible. It takes POETRY to at least start finding the ways to express so much in such little space, and "Kneading our place in the world...and gift-wrapping tradition into corn husks" just about sums up my current recollection of that experience. Thank you for being able to see it and comment on its effect.<br /><br />I LOVED THE FISHERMAN AND THE FISH. There are so many different cultural and linguistic perspectives to take life lessons in order to teach and reteach. This is what the celebration is all about. BEAUTIFUL MY DEAR HEART!

YOU, who has shown me what poetry is in flesh and blood.<br /><br />These photos (the silly bunny whose name IS April Fools! teehe) to the Pushkin story (must read the translation today) and all of the quotes are fuel for the fire to keep me reading, writing and teaching the necessity to express oneself. THANK YOU for you wonderful comment that I saw about 1:00am but was unable to comment...I had to go to bed after a week of teaching again each day! WOW, how one must be FIT mentally and physically to teach!<br /><br />Hugs and much love for all that you do for your friends. Your life is that "Masterpiece."<br /><br />AnitaCastles Crowns and Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01780241008313365707noreply@blogger.com
