Good Thoughts, Words That Resonate

When I hear your voices
I don't know you
With your gratitude you make my day
Each little sentence thoughtfully commented

Compliments that resonate
touch a chord, fill a need
assuage hunger
for the wonder 
of comforting genuine words of praise
uplifting
absorbing moments

"A really touching and beautiful poem Rachel….love it!" Debx

Yolanda Nicholsen "Beautiful write I adore Autumn thanks for sharing"

Beautiful. Excellent description. I want to be there." Judy Gulas

This poem speaks for those whose lost their voice along with everything else and only even now after all this time beginning to speak. I am sure there is a lot more poems that you will feel compelled to write. Regards David"

"Perfect length for me. I Love Autumn. Such a wonderful backdrop of dappled leaves and the sun not too hot with enough rays left to bring out all the various tones in a leaf. This poem shows your versatility. Will look out for future poems. David In Wainui."

"A poem like this shows how keeping the narrative simple and not overthinking the write can produce the goods. This poem records honest feelings that I am sure many can relate to. David from Wainuiomata NZ"

Love this poem Rachael it’s so open, honest and freeing, and I can see the image clearly, almost like having a person in ones pocket, there listening and validating, very beautiful :) I hope I saw it as you described. Angie

You people see far more than I described
Thank you
Gratitude a hard gift to find, to say is mine
