Hello my dear ladies and mellow fellows.
I’ve handwritten a poem tonight, which was both terrifying and very liberating too, given our reliance on mobile phones and computers to produce written pieces nowadays.
Hope you enjoy it!

I do like it… especially the fact that it is hand-written.
Thank you Art – hearing that from you makes me well proud and chuffed to bits. I’m glad it turned out OK and not a big ole pile of chicken scratchings.
No… you used the invention of writing well…
I love that this is hand written! This is very sweet without being sappy, you know? I like it. 😉
Thank you so much my favourite Cousin 🙂 I do enjoy being sincere when it comes to love and romance, even my comedies are affectionate parodies of a genre I admire when it is heartfelt
Thank you for including me in your lovely post. What an excellent poem too! Thank you again. 🙂
You’re very welcome Colleen and thank you for taking the time to read my poem and leave your smashing comment – very much appreciated.
Now that is a handmade (written) marvel. Good one 🙂
Hey there Insach – thanks for the compliment and for reading my poem – appreciate it buddy!
You’re welcome, the pleasure was mine.
Thank you for including my post on coffee 🙂
You’re very welcome. Coffee making is an art form that should stay made by hand otherwise like you say in your post, it just becomes a commodity rather than something special. It is worthy of the time and ceremony surrounding it, just like when making a delicious pot of tea. Thank you for reading my poem, I appreciate it 🙂
I read two of your poems today and enjoyed them both. I like your style of romantic poetry and that it differs from poem to poem. It’s not only a glimpse of love but of intense passion. Wonderful work.
Belle
Hey there Belle. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment on my work, very kind of you 🙂 I have been told there is a lot of passion in my work and romantic poetry is one of my favourite areas that I like to work in because of the feelings that it generates in men and women. I find it all very enchanting to write different pieces that capture the essence of love, warmth and affection and am glad that you have enjoyed my work, as it makes it all worthwhile when I can move people enough to comment.
You’re so welcome, romance is my fav. genre also and I can see you are gifted in it and it comes from your heart.
Belle
