Treasure

A magic moment
along today’s ardent street
the application
old folk holding hands pass by...
many issues spring to mind.

reviewing this one again. I have one like this too, about an old couple together in a car. It made me remember that scene.

Hey, I somehow missed your last post here. I like that sweet line on old folks holding hands! It's sure nice to see you here. Can't wait to see some new poems of yours. Did you see they took away all the old poems some of us had up? Did you lose any for viewing?

I like "ardent street". that is striking. You always write with a different slant and I, for one, do like reading your work. Thanks and best wishes, Gerard.

It's so comforting to see elderly couples holding hands. Gives us hope for the future, Harry. You certained "wowed" me with the memories of my own parents holding hands. Best wishes in Francine's contest! Love, Carolyn
