The Prize Called, a Reply

The Prize Called A Reply Here we are and the holidays approaching! I can vaguely hear the reindeer bells in the air. Kim Rodrigues started all this! I don't know how she did it, but indeed, she did. I have a tiny ceramic tree already lit sparkling right next to me. Each reply can be a gift. I mean when they come from our heart. I cannot tell you how happy I am with one reply. It's an acknowledgement that another read you or me. We live in this electronic age, some type fast as planes, some not! So remember that a human wrote each poem. Reply if you like any poem. Do it out of love and compassion! A touch of love, a dash of humility, like the first snowfall. Sweet and so silent. A reply, blesses all here... An artistic and most creative citizenry!      November 15, 2019

I, too, love Chritstmas .. the most. Thanksgiving, not so much. I enjoyed one Christmas So much when a group of us went visiting the elderly in comnalescent homes. That was long ago in SF. Most Of my family lives in the Midwest.PR xxx

My mother always had one of those ceramic trees with the different colored bulbs. This poem sent a great message...and a great memory back to me. Thank you for sharing. :) Charlie

TS....thank you. I forever hunt for those poets who write well and are ignored. They get crumbs of recognition. Why comment to someone who has 40 replies? I can see that in a POTD, yes. Some poets here state openly that they will not read you unless you read them. Why, are they God? I read who I like. Some poets have a quota they must have each day. And warn to drop you from reading you if you don't Fill their quota. I really think the opposite. No quota here. And am not on a high horse that I am the best. No way. Just simple.-)) I can't imagine the insecurity of such thoughts. Many nice poetic folks here....PR
