Welcome to this site. I know you will like it here. I had to check this one out. "Sitting Pretty" is a poker term for someone who is holding a good hand like a four of a kind, or a straight flush. Although your work describes something else, it is very interesting and descriptive.

Hi Ellen, nice you took it upon yourself to sit somewhere else. , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your poetry. At this very moment, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your writings. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT"
