Also because she is my sister I understand each line like a memory I once lived.

Mino,

There?s a peach tree in my back yard and Ho?ano loves to eat pomegranates.

Quilly: You are a far better poet than I, or many of the people I know. You’ll be our laureate.

Thom: I’m with you on the anti-poetry sentiments. But I’m hoping to expand my horizons by incorporating something beyond my usual comfort zone. Hey, I didn’t write it, I just posted it, with permission of course.

Capsun..if you have followed my Blog, I think I posted it in ScuttleButt but poetry and I do not agree at all. And April is poetry month, so alas, so many of the blogs I follow are doing that poem a day thing. I despise poetry with a passion. I don’t get it, have a hard time reading it and can’t write it. Oh I’ve tried, but I should stick with nursery rhymes. I’m so counting the days until April is over with. Don’t get me wrong I admire those that can write it…it’s just my end that has the hard time…Oh and Quilly…she can write it…

We have a special day
In April that is today
Quilly is one year older
Now put that in your folder

I’m afraid most of what I write is termed “drivel” by “real” poets. Alas, I don’t care much for what is termed “real” poetry, either. It often doesn’t make a dern bit of sense to anybody but the person who wrote it, and in my opinion, if you have to explain it, you didn’t write it well!

Just don’t tell anybody I said that. Some folks actually think I know what I’m doing.

Thanks for the link!
