* * * Those words of negativity deposit on her shoulders like adamant particles of dust. More and more energy is needed to shake them off in the very moment when they attempt to cling ... After years of denigration her wings now are encrusted, she can spread them no more. She still remembers though that she was meant to soar ... * * * |

And hopefully she will, in your next poem, despite the encrustation . . . Lovely characterisation of the picture, Margherita. - Owl |

Thank you, dear D., yes, there is salvation in the power of the mind to detach ... but it can be very hard work at times. Love, Margherita |

Such a heartfelt write from you, Margherita. A tear jerker to be sure, however I always find some comfort in your poetry. |

Hi Margherita, negativity is bad and it has more side effects than direct effects. Wishing her positive energy. Prasad "Hardwork pays in the long run" |

I believe, Margherita. I believe she will again. Just as I did when I was a little girl when I clapped for Tinkerbell, I clap and believe. She will soar again. |

Dear Margherita - this poem came as a bit of a surprise but it's a true reflection of how we can all feel sometimes. I have recently felt like that myself but when we remember what we were meant to do, we have no option but to get up and get on with the doing. When I was younger I used to spring up but now it takes a little longer perhaps because I think more now than I used to. Oh, for the good old days! Hugs Helen |
