I completely forgot about the poem. I'm jealous if you have actually heard a Mockingbird, I think I have in movies only. Despite lacking a Mockingbird memory, I loved your write - I get it. CayCay

I came looking for you, picturing you healthy, alert and writing. You are in my prayers. CayCay

CayCay, I have the mockingbirds singing all the time; they usually love to be under my live-oak, and they are beautiful to hear. and to answer the bottom comment, I live by myself. Hugs my friend

I read your comment on my Irish Limerick and ran right over. I'm concerned, even your written words sounded down and void of energy, even creative energy. I go thru that. Please do not be ill, say you aren't ill. I think you are a bit older than me, both of us baby boomers and don't you also live with your son? Talk to me when you can, meanwhile I will pray for enthused energy and spirit, plus perfect body healing. It may not be delivered by Thursday as I wish, but in God's time. BE WELL
