Dot To Dot

As a tiny tot We played dot to dot Connecting pictures With nada strictures Innocence prevailed Colouring detailed No problems to solve Our small world revolved On connecting dots Without other thoughts Having grown up now The world has changed, how! We flit from dot to dot Scrambling from thought to thought Responsibilities Beyond abilities Dot to dot image Varies with each page Whole picture not seen Till there you have been 1st December 2022 For Kim Rodrigues' "Dot to dot" contest

After having grown up-"We flit from dot to dot Scrambling from thought to thought". Quite right. Nicely done Jo. Congratulations on your win....

GREAT take on the contest theme, JO. I need to post mine sometime soon. It's so different from yours. It was hard for me to realize what to do with this topic!
