Yes that old world charm is a great picture..I just wish my Calligraphy skills were any where near as good as the old scholars..Much thanks from my delta home to your sandy plains..Hope all is well with you and yours..

Re: Elyse
I did have a wonderful time..We were so busy with the last few days of school my head was in a spin..I really didn't want to go back to work..LOL but the first day is over now..Thank you..I love to write Calligraphy..But I am not very good at it....I agree slowing down on the ice cream for Chett might be helpful although very habit forming..If I get soen there I can take him a few time for you..Much thanks and love to you and Mr. Chett

Re: Mariaki

Here is the information about this type of poem:

Often has a title.

Euphony ( quality of having a pleasing sound) is a key factor.

Each line may have 8 or 9 syllables for a total of 17.

Thank you!

Samuel Johnson so rightly conveys the idea, "Think more to ink less", and writing with a quill has such an old world charm about it, makes the writer look a genius.

LOVE THIS ~ I so adore a quill and an inkwell ~ That graced my desk for many a year --- and I still like calligraphy pens with their nibs to change.  I love this Marion/Wigopa ~ welcome back and trust you had a great time off ~ u Elyse (nonetheless, I'm going to slow down on ice cream treats for Chett  ~ I'm liking it myself ---- must be the 'comfort' ~ )

Although it may not be parchment nor quill, there are so many wonderful poets here on Blogit pondering what words we will share.  I love this two line style and I love the thought you shared with us.
