    Someone tell her it is May. She does not need to write a poem every day!

    we can hope they still love us...
    and that love is a bit more than the external...
    and pushing a poem a day will def do it to you...smiles

    Don't quite see a voice here unless exceedingly quirky in all you do, but thought it was hilarious.
    Cinquains were designed for this.
    BTW, is your header picture in England by any chance? It looks vaguely familiar.

    I'm proud of my wrinkles--every one is well-earned! Very fun, clever piece. It's been awhile since I've had the chance to visit over here, you made it worthwhile as always!

    Oh naughty Nico..you borrowed that line from Italian actress Anna Magnani( I know because I am a goldmine of useless information)
    It has been too long since your last visit...I will put on the billy and we'll have tea and bikkies!

    a light touch, witty, but the phrasing is kind of lovely. So/will you love me, I say/will you love me. Thanks for sharing. I love your poems.
