 Such a lovely read.  I truly enjoyed this poem.  It shares such warm and cozy like feelings and the repetitive brings in good rhythm. Elyse

I guess the word is "evocative" - this poem really had me going! You put me in your shoes.

Yeah, sometimes, things could just be different.

This is great.  Makes me feel like a child again.

Interesting Sir I note that you love the hubble bubble of domestic scenes and warm cooking smells as you relax and feel the barge passing. I usually take my hearing aid out of my good ear as I prefer silence. I quite enjoyed it anyway, I wish that you would write more often, I suppose that is a recommendation, chin up

I can't decide if this is sweetly wise or wisely sweet but I know is amazing  writing because it placed me there with you sitting by the opened window, watching and listening to the beautigul bounty of Summer :-)  Excellent work John!  xoxoxo
