Happiness Poem by Tan Pratonix

Nice word picture - thank you for sharing

First it was mangoes now its is happiness thru nature. Loved to read this one too.

a string of nice memories.. a kite.. the bay.. and then the toddler and the ''Fields of stars in the Milky Way''.. a truly nice picture.. but why those words in round-brackets? ''a (heart) string'' - '' (all of a sudden) '' no need of brackets, Tan.. Cheers

Childhood memories are etched deep in the mind! Often they jostle up to come to the surface and we derive happiness! There are so many other beautiful scenes of Nature that also make us happy like 'fields of stars in the Milky way'! A sweet poem! (I couldn't find your poem David and Goliath!)

A delight to read Tan and such a beautifully constructed piece. I was there with the flowers and the butterflies a scene depicted with such power. Very well done. Memories can be so lifting to the heart.

Hi Tan A very imaginitiveness sequence of images that are all very pleasant and peacfully spiritual, Thank you, Paul

I like your style of including observations of our natural surroundings; very nicely done.10.

A positive powerful poem my friend!

I love this stunning write that has such beautiful imagery of your childhood days that flutter in your mind like an eternal butterfly!

I like this deep poem about childhood... The first three lines made me feel like you were describing Minnesota... But then I saw it as a metaphor for childhood itself. The scenes you chose to depict childhood wonder and discovery are truly poignant: swings and kites, walking through the woods, the ocean, family love... And the line, Pulling at at (heart) string is perfect! Well done. Good luck on the contest.
