Oh, I am happy when the tops of oak
wave out in greeting, simply green and long
as slow hellos of love, and birdbabes croak
through open beaks, then make firstsummer song.

    i am happy when i see three dad's in the park, one for each kid, as i ride my bike in sunlight, again, thinking this is the way, the very long way, dad.

    I am happy when I see the leaves of a far reaching tree
    dripping in rain; a barrier for me. My heart reaches out
    a loud, "Thank you, tree."

    Thank you, Bella. :) I'm putting the finishing touches to your crits that you asked for and I'll PM them tomorrow morning. Sorry for the delay. :)

    Not a problem, not a problem. Remember, you're helping ME, I'm very grateful for your feedback. I have the first drafts of about 4 more, but I can't seem to get to the next drafts. I'm a little stuck, but hopefully, I'll get unstuck. I'm starting to get a little anxious about writing 50 poems by November 1st, when I only completed 1 in June (#5.) As my hero is the little train that could, of course I can do it, but it may be a rush at the end :-)

    I am happy when my 4 year old niece
    holds my hand in a crowded store,
    and keeps my soul young.
