Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But it is amazing how the mirror and make up can change the outlook of a lady. My wife was an expert at making up. Took her only about 10 minutes to cover all those sins of teenage angst turning her into the professional woman she had become.

Shhh. Don't tell her too much. She's about perfect as is.
Nice poem also!

I am glad to be in the company of Corrine and Diana about this poem.
It soars with beauty, style, and grace. Your tender thoughts come through in every line. I wish my memories of my dad were half as good. We need to hear more from you, Craig.

People the world over can relate to your poem. How something invisible could have such an overwhelming presence on the planet and use what makes us strong against us, being with our fellow humans. No, it will not stop our song. I think it has made us sing all the louder.

This is a wonderful poem, so tender and yet I feel your dad's strength that he yet provides just through remembering him. I love the owl. We have one that roosts in trees nearby. I love to hear it hoot in the night.

A simply wonderful poem!
You have captured the essence of those
four memorable days so evocativeley…
It brought tears to my eyes…
Be still..
was that your Dad’s whistle
on the breeze?
Astute Olly Beak lives on…and he’s given you such
precious gifts of Trust and Faith…
All is well…

Firstly…welcome to the Den Craig…,
I’m sure you’ll enjoy your time here!
It’s a great place to be, and fellow writers
become our much appreciated ‘pen’ friends!
This very well written and sensitive poem is something
we can all relate to…and in one sad way Covid unites
us globally …but in another it gives the whole world
the determination you refer to, to finally conquer it!
I admire your spirit…!
Diana 🌈
