A Final Note

Dear Universal Source, I love you still, of course You've driven me hard handed me the joker card often, and still words pour ( though I'm at your door) from your heart's fount - Chalice Well I write them down to tell, as I am bidden what lies no longer hidden. Quite soon, I'll be with you a thought from the blue! Maybe I will be the tool, dropping words on a fool. I wish them good luck, Mayhap they can get to duck!! Love always, Your writing fool. Written 18th July 2018 For My Muse - Mortal Contest Sponsor Gregory R. Barden

Oh, I loved this, Virginia - it made me smile, at a moment when a smile was what I desperately needed! Never underestimate the power of honesty and joyous, humorous expression - it reaches the heart quickly and deeply, as if on angels' wings! Love the phrasing, the change of tempo, the layers and many emotions, from the deep to the light-hearted - I thoroughly enjoyed this gem. Sincere congratulations on your FIFTH PLACE in the 'My Muse, Mortal' Poetry Contest - blessings, my friend! :-)

These days it doesn't seem that anybody is 'too young' anymore. I still have some time ahead of me, hopefully; my daughters are only in their 20s but my life has had a few moments of final thoughts. But we're still here so I am thankful :)

Took me a while too. Decided to go with a light approach; as too intimidating writing for the bard! Can't compete there so tried something different. You're probably too young to be thinking final thoughts !! Just disengage and sleep on it.
