The Seeds By Fancy Fed

Imaginative stories read
by Mom to fill a small girl’s head!
She planted seeds by fancy fed
which later bloomed in me.
I've since been reaping in their stead
sweet joy in poetry!

For Dr. Ram Metha's Contest:
"Rime Couee"

This sweet piece reminds me of how my mum always read to me - she says now that she enjoyed Worzel Gummidge and the Famous Five as much as I did : )

A fine read my friend. Funny how the experiences we have as children can bring out the poet in the adult. Good stuff. God Bless, JB

Great writing and entry Andrea. In answer to your comment. That doll was there as soon as I got off the stage. The only thing in otherwise empty sack. As Isaid it is still a mystery. It was written for the Childhood Memory contest. I am alone today. My daughter invited me along on their busy day but I opted to stay home with you. Love, Joyce
