On Tiptoes

Carolyn, love the imagery on this write, a 7. Blessings dear friend Eve

A great bit of wisdom Carolyn.You said that you and the family are now letting each other know that they are loved .That also is wisdom for we never know when we can't say it, for it will be too late. My brothers and sister get all together now in memory of my Mom. we did when she was alive . Now that was a big wish of hers to stay together.Anne

That's the wisdom that mature poets can eloquently write about. Beautiful take on the contest. Wasn't the picture cute? Gwendolen

Coming from a gentle heart, I'm not surprised, Seafaress. I've learned to hold back over the years. Not quite there yet, but I' trying very hard! Good advice to remember, always. Love, Annalise

Sometimes life is like tip toeing on rice paper. Fine Sijo Carolyn....:)

I want to comment on your comment, as part of Gods plan, who are we to question, most I agree with you, but this time I have to say no, God doesn't allow His children to be hurt, it's the earth and the devil that brings Gods wrath, so children are the ones who suffer, as Christians individually, we can only voice our opinion, but to question Him is not right, He has a plan and those children who are in the way of War, well it's men, and Satan that make these children suffer not our Saviour.

This is wonderful, Carolyn and so in tune with what I am feeling today (ducking the daggers) and collecting the roses, as per my blog.. best of luck in the contest, dear heart~~

Penned so beautifully, great write.Good luck for the contest..Gautami

Amazing write, dear Carolyn! I sometimes have to stand on tiptoes because I am a short person, hahaha!! Wish you best of luck in Rick's contest!...Love, Gert

I must say Carolyn there are sentiments i so agree with here! good to see your thoughtful write.

a very creative and beautiful poem. thank you for reading my two hearts came together and for your comments. i just wish i could have met my grandfather he died 24 years before i was born, but i do have one picture of him, that i have hanging on the wall.

I really like the thoughts you put in your last line, Carolyn-- how graceful it sounds-- beautiful advice you give here, Carolyn-- hugs
