The Last Bell Tolls

That is some great advice. I never thought of it that way.

Thank you Michael...Getting better

That sure feels good to know I got it right, yay! And coolio, my Encylopedia Brown/Nate the Great/Nancy Drew reading paid off, haha! Thanks again for this, Tim...it was really fun for me. Sorry I won't be here much starting this month, but I'm sure you'll get good answers from your challenges (maybe when I do pass by, I can try to guess again)...I tried something like this before and it was really fascinating to read how others interpreted my poem from before-- only goes to show how truly one's own poem Grows once you put it out there for others to read, has a life of its own.

Yes you got it right...hooray...I will have to think some more and put up another challenge. By the way you were the only one to get the right answer. I did have a kite answer, some about school and bullying and one thought it was about my meds..lol...Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks you Jo.

It is a shame Tom. I do see many of them hanging throughout our city. I do donate mine to charity along with my used clothing.

Thanks John. I love to see what the reader gets out of a poem. It does make me happy when I know they can relate to a message or feeling.

Thanks for stopping back Eve : )

Yes they shoeld...lol...Im surprised no one picked up on the locked away weekends or running ladders ( I hated that in gym class)...even the material it was made out of( canvas) and pure white first day

Thanks Ian. I appreciate you visit.

Thanks Scott

Thanks for coming back. I do love your thoughts on schooling. I have the concerns myself. Especially with my Nathan. He is so smart he becomes lazy at times. I donate mine if there is still life left in them or many times they turn into my gardening shoes. The kids we exchange with relatives because as you stated they grow out of them so quick.

Im sorry I got it all.wrong...Many times I start reading from top to bottom..But thinking from bottom to top.: ).First I saw used and abused...So abuse bulb lit on : ).I didnt see the form 'Personification'..sonI was completely thinking Human....Even shoes have their fortune indeed. I do give away Christina's shoes away to my cousin's daughter..because she grows out of them to quick..Mine I throw in the bin, ofcourse because when I throw them away, they have been used enough...: )..

Yes we need to be on top of what the kids are doing. The great thing with technology you can see daily the progress they are making in school. You can tell if an assignment was missed or not comprehended by your child and it gives you a chance to head off any problems...I posted a pic to add to the meaning in my little poem.

I don't believe this personification hasn't been written before. If you look at the visual it might help

Thanks Janice

Thanks Arthur

Thanks John...I put a picture to help

Thanks Eve...great to see you...hope things are well down in Texas

Originally I thought it was about a kite ... but now you have put the pic I see the hidden meaning:-) hugs Jan xx

Thanks Jan...there is some hidden meaning if you can find it.

Thanks Sara

Sorry Tim not Time:)

Thank you so much Andrea

Thank you Gail

Thank you Nilima for your nice comment. They are hard to come by lately. Must be a busier world we live in these days. Not many have time to stop smell the roses and chat with their neighbor.
