I enjoy reading, writing, and painting. I love animals and at present have one dog (Sam) and 2 cats (brother and sister, Notwen and Pouncer). I've lived in various places in the USA and now in Canada. I've always enjoyed watching life and people and have developed an appreciation for it all. My outlook is sometimes out of the normal.... but that's what makes things so interesting! I am always interested in the opinions of others. Everyone has their own outlook and it's always worthwhile to listen!

Nicely written even though it has an undertone of saddness. The sadness of lonely toys with no children to play with. You leave us hoping but until then it is sad. I like it Jackie.
Thank you Kim. It is kind of sad I suppose. I always think when I see a toy just laying around that they are waiting, for the child to come and play again.
Bleak photo. You did well with what you had to work with. Kind of thought of your art supplies waiting for you to come back to them. You do so well with poetry. I’m envious, can you tell. 🙂

A beautiful poem, Jackie! A bit melancholic but has a joyful undertone, blessed memories and hope for the future. Hugs to you my friend ❤

thank you tiny. It was a bit melancholic, but so is the picture, but I couldn’t go too deep into it, had to shine a bit of hope. Hugs to you also ❤

That’s beautiful Jackie. Reminds me of those Christmas stories of abandoned and neglected toys.

Yes I suppose it does in a way. I didn’t think of it when writing, but I can see it now. Thank you Michael.

I think I’m not so good with poetry, I find if I write what I feel, with less filler words, it seems to work. But hey, I’m an amature. 🙂

Well, I must be an amateur reader because I like the way you write them. 🙂
