12/22/2023 In the softest, snowflaked, winter moonlight she walks The townspeople peered out their frosted windows fora chance peak. Not a precious feather moves, and she is not stalked. All knew not to mess with her, for she is their hope and not a town freak! Rebelloisuness courses through her throbbing, silent. robust veins. She dreams of a world in peace, free of all govermental intervention . A must,is that, on any writer, forbidden foreever, any attempt to dare their pen to restrain, Streets for all, to walk without dark fear, a world sparkling with open, jubilant communication!

Dear lovely Panagiota, It's great deluxe poem. Six line is my favorite "She dreams of a world in peace, free of all govermental (governmental) intervention" By the way, my major is Economics. A favorite poem for sure :-)

Dear Abdullah. I am so glad you liked those six lines.. so did I)) They were very powerful.. Since you’re majoring yin economics, good heavens, you know what’s going on.. I listen to programs on TV about all the economic devastation that’s going on right here in United States. And other places. I don’t know when the government will stop printing money, and supporting every nation in the world.. and then have the UN tell us we are a bad nation, and our allies won’t even back us? If we can’t stand for ourselves, and our allies won’t back us up, then what!All our taxes support everything non-American. I really don’t understand it. And children in the USA get the worst education in the world. That’s a sin. Plus, we are supposed to shut up and go along with the government run by Mr. potato head? Golly, not me. Thank you , Holiday Greetings Pangie.

Love the imagery in the two sentences. I too wish for a gentler government with giving to its people for hope is the key. Hope you are staying warm. It's decided to be warm these past few days and it feels good. Merry Christmas my friend.

Hello, Eve, yes! Staying warm and imside. We do not owe the government, they owe us! We pay them to laws are in place.Not break them! Riots are not the AMerican way. But we cannot be told what id right by them. And some, wow, liars. Anyway, i wish you a Merry Christmas, dear Eve,Oangie and family.

Hi, Elena thank you very much there are several levels of meaning in that poem. And I think that you know what they are.. you’re good with people. I can’t say the same for myself. I have been extremely tired lately.. working late hours wrapping presents. I’m really tired.. Sure!))) Actually, I am a retired elf. Pangie ))
