Chair In a Shadowed Room

he instructed me as I fed or groomed the horse but now his chair sits empty no audience now.... but I remember talking mixed with neighs and his laughter

Dear Francine, I had already written my choka before reading yours and was stunned by the similarity in our perspectives on the picture. How true that we have more in common than our birthdays. There is something about your writing that always draws me into the poems. Love, Carolyn

This one is marvelous. I was not sure it was a stable.But i think you got it right (which means my poem will read kind of strange). I think your entry is one of the better ones in the contest and I hope it does well. Have a great Sunday. Luv, Andrea
