Caren Krutsinger April 29, 2020 at 6:05 AM Your muse is a great lead. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 29, 2020 at 8:11 AM I really do follow blindly... and am oft surprised when I open my eyes. xomo!

Andrea Dietrich April 27, 2020 at 4:36 PM talk about TO THE POINT. Wow, I wish I could be as succinct as this . I can't even think what to approach to use for Line's contest, but this rocks!!! Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 28, 2020 at 7:48 AM My muse surprised me, then again, she usually does. I follow blindly, then look back later and go "wow! I wrote that?" as layers of meaning unfurl before me. I suppose I'm instinctual. Thank you! I always feel the pressure for 'more'..."No short forms please..." xomo!

Edlynn Nau April 27, 2020 at 10:51 AM I think the LIST genre is fun! I did one called “Things with Strings” and “Lines”. I took the genre a step further by making my list and then setting it to rhyme...double genre. Anyhoo, yours is fun and we get a snapshot of you. Revealing! Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 28, 2020 at 7:36 AM I've only tried list a couple of times, for contests, and failed the first lol, this one is faring better so far ;), Have a lovely day Edlynn! xomo

Thank you wonderful Wings, xomo

Anil Deo April 21, 2020 at 6:57 PM Another great poet (New Yorker or Huskie of CT Yankee) earned his keep by Insuring those who did not need insurance. Nice to see something LONG written by Wordsmith & Birdsmith Maureen. shalom Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 21, 2020 at 7:09 PM There's a couple of longer ones on this list. ;), Of course I turned my list into a poem. Adieu! xomo

Just about the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 19, 2020 at 1:44 PM I do love terns! They're like giant swallows, so graceful. Too far inland to see them here. If it's a bird, you know I'm a fan. No fowl too lowly for me. ~x
