Final Footle

I appreciate your uplifting remarks, Paula! This one was fun to write, and I think most people got the "bar-tend" and "bard-tend" wordplay. Thanks, again. Have a great rest of your month! Blessings & very best, Bartholomew

Thank you kindly, Anne-Lise. It is great to hear from you! It has been a while (my fault; I sincerely apologize). Hugs right back to you. Blessings & very best, Bartholomew

Thank you so very much, Andrea! (It does feel nice to be among those who placed.) I sincerely appreciate you kind comments and taking the time to read my poem. Blessings & very best, Bartholomew

Sara, thank you for your visit today! I appreciate your nice words. You're right - a simple footle leave no room (syllables, words, lines, anything!) for any "fluff." I thought people would appreciate my pun about trying to be a poet in the end! You obviously got it, so thank you. Blessings and very best, Bartholomew

Yes, we get some snow where I live, so I have had the whole winter experience. Very best to you, Darlene! Bartholomew

Hello Bartholomew, Where do you live? Do you have winter?I was wondering if you didi. Enjoy your day my friend. /Darlene/

Thank you very much, Darlene, and I hope your week is going well. Stay warm! Very best, Bartholomew
