AS SHE PRESSED 21 May 2011 As she pressed Send and Receive for the millionth time, she wished, for a moment, that it was as easy as that to bring him back to her . . . but then she realised that something so precious deserved infinitely more than simply pressing an electronic button but then that was before . . .

Do you remember the "unsend" button??!! I loved that little feature once upon a time. Your poem is heartfelt and expressed so well, Lady Owl~ |

Thank you, Ford. I am glad you enjoyed it. Thank you, for your kind words. Yes, change plays a role in the poem - simultaneously a significant and insignificant one. No, Blues, I don’t remember the Unsend button – perhaps at that stage, I hadn’t yet touched computers. It must have been a handy option! Thank you for the sweet things you said. Thanks for your input, Jerry. I am sorry you know what I mean – and I know you know what I mean! Yes, Karilea, I suppose so. Smiles. Owl |
