The doll on the sill is the killer here cher... A stunning and extremely compelling conclusion to the picture you have painted... I wager you have done one on canvas too huh? If not you certainly should...

So much said here, so much that can be gathered from this monoku, Debbie! and yes, it is your little monkey being weird-- thank you for making me smile, yes, my current name on here is hard to remember, eh? now I am being fickle minded and I think I really will embarrass myself with the sonnet if ever I do write it, oops! I will peek here & there, sighs, me just still mulling over Linda-Marie's passing...thank you for putting me on the list--

We have so many empty houses over here, bur still a housing crisis. Maybe the Queen with all her houses and empty rooms could house the homeless, I would, guess she wouldn't.. Love your write, the doll in the sill, something sad, so many stories of the past untold. Well done. Pete.
