Bruce~ Ah, you did a 'remember number' on me with this one~ Much, much applause~ ![]() Let's see if I can find that little drift of boat ... the one that I once wrote~ If I can ... I think that I will *re-gift* it in your name~ *Huglets* ![]() ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Magical, indeed! Now I see where dear Marge felt inspired to re-gift you with her moon-boat scenery. Both, your poem and hers, are delightful. Love, Margherita ![]() |

Even 'Adrift', a leaf is bound by the currents of its own river. This idyllic setting could be a metaphor for our lives. The silver moonlight is like a promise, an earnest of what the day will bring when the sun rises- a reflection of what will be. It carried me with it. |

Is there room enough on that boat for me?!? A little gem, you have penned! Love & En-Light-enment, Linda |

I love your poem, Bruce - that enlightenment - although somewhat ambiguous, I choose to accept as not the cynical enlightenment of something sad, but the awakening to the light of something beautiful and good. ![]() - Owl |

Bruce, I close my eyes and I see - and I feel the gentle rocking of a little moon boat. Thank you. Alison |
