....second fine offering from this new poet today. A very good read!
sweet, well written, poetic, just everything about it is so nice.
Yes...haven't we all been caught some time, being big pretty hats, fluttering about in the wind, heading for that puddle? I know I have.
big hats on a windy day
fall into the puddles
(and no more)
Ignore him, sweetie. He can give good advice at times, but it's always wrapped in thorns. In this particular case it's not even good advice.

SJ may have got it right
But not everything austere feels right;
Sometimes the pleasure's in the frills
A little added sensual thrill.
