All Comments on 'Life of Kelly'

What a lovely expression of encouragment, hope and an acknowledgement of one who lives instead of merely exists.

This is just beautiful! I love it and I swear I could almost smell the earth and the land around her. Such incredible imagery and music to be found in nature, and it's a peace we've moved so far away from as we alienate ourselves in cities. Kelly sounds like an amazing woman and I'm so glad you shared this with us!!

I loved the connection with nature but my favourite bits were about the wisdom we acquire when we go through life. To make each minute count, yet make peace with who we are. To enjoy the simple pleasures... to embrace change yet remain content. I think growing up involves balancing these contradictions within us.

Very lovely!

A beautifully composed poem with wise and heartfelt words. Thank you for sharing.

Life brings us so many twists and turns. Where ever our journey has taken us to be able to say

"I am happy in my world, in my today."

Is a triumph over those road blocks.

Thank you for sharing

Both happy and sad, reflective and wishful and so very beautifully written.

Absolutely gorgeous, Apple! I can almost see the landscape and hear the coyotes calling. A beautiful homage to a woman who clearly lives and loves with her whole heart.

What wonderfully evocative prose, it sounds like absolute paradise there.

thank you for posting this beautiful poem, @Apple. and thank you, Apple's friend, for sharing your life this way with her, and by proxy, with us :)

I would like to thank everyone for taking the time to read "Life of Kelly" and for your wonderful comments. The poem is truly Kelly's life as she described it to me. I'm glad you see the same beauty in her words as I did. I'm most happy that Kelly is able to see the beauty in her day to day, her life, and the nature that surrounds her. Thank you again, for all of the lovely and heartfelt words.
