Best Visits

Best visits are from loved ones far away. You'll chat and laugh, sometimes from night to dawn! For when they come, you'll pack into one day months or even years of what's been going on. July 27, 2021 For Line Gauthier's Bite Size Poem No21 Poetry Contest

So true and what a lovely feeling of happiness as the day just flows by so quickly, but we have them for some time, so we should enjoy what each day brings. Your poem is a literal exact feeling of how great it is to have overseas family or friends visit. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Hi Andrea, I agree visits from someone that you haven't seen in a long time are the best. Best wishes in the contest:-) Alexis

A visit from a relative can be an interesting time of catch up. I hope that when you and your sisters get together that it is a very happy time. Thanks for the visits to my page. Sara

After over a year of isolation (now ended), those family dinners/get-togethers were sorely missed. This poem resonated with me, nice one ..Delice

certainly time to celebrate when folk are able to meet loved ones and friends and family - I find the differences in pronunciation quite amusing as we don't rhyme on with dawn - on with gone and dawn with drawn lol:-) hugs jan xx
