Such a lovely read. I truly enjoyed this poem. It shares such warm and cozy like feelings and the repetitive brings in good rhythm. Elyse

smiles of summer
I guess the word is "evocative" - this poem really had me going! You put me in your shoes.

Interesting Sir I note that you love the hubble bubble of domestic scenes and warm cooking smells as you relax and feel the barge passing. I usually take my hearing aid out of my good ear as I prefer silence. I quite enjoyed it anyway, I wish that you would write more often, I suppose that is a recommendation, chin up

I can't decide if this is sweetly wise or wisely sweet but I know is amazing writing because it placed me there with you sitting by the opened window, watching and listening to the beautigul bounty of Summer :-) Excellent work John! xoxoxo
