In Walkabout Grey Wombat waddles in Walkabout through a field... stops to smell a rose- there greeted by butterfly who descends onto his nose Poeminister |

"seeing" is the poets greatest asset, followed closely by listening and feeling. So continue to see, hear, and feel, my friend... Your poem is wonderfully done. "When one sees but never saw, touches, but never feels, hears, but only sound, one knows life, but doesn't live. But when one loves, it's with his soul he sees, his heart he touches, and his life he hears. It's all the glory, and the sorrow, the joy's, and the pain, the fullness of everything that has ever been..."
