Perfect, dear Owl! Reminds me of when I just play one note on my piano to "enliven" my soul. Love, Margherita |

Thank you for enjoying it so much Margherita. What a lovely idea! I am going to do that too. I played the piano some nights ago for the first time for a long time - I thought I didn't have the time, but I MADE it - not easy, but I am going to keep trying to MAKE time for things I need and/or want to do. I can't wait to play that one note as soon as I am offline. Owl |

Oh, how lovely, Jo. I have never heard the call of a mockingbird, as we don't have them in South Africa - but I remember a song of long ago called Mocking Bird Hill or something like that - or at least, I remember that part of a line and can hear that part's tune. Yes, isn't that a lovely idea of Margherita! I love it to bits! Thank you for your response and for enjoying the poem. Owl |
