      Aww- I thank you abundantly! The poem kinda sprang from my heart in the same manner that I’d like to frolic through that beautiful field. Standing in the sunshine with you, my dear! ❤ ~Karen~

   I like the way you have the reaching and searching, along with the clouds that can block the connections. The ‘refrain’ of “Are you there?” really is touching and I love this so much, Karen!

      Thanks so much, Robin! I so appreciate your kind and thoughtful words. Yes, I felt the poem would be lacking without the refrain of “Are you there?” It was an easy write – like that of frolicking through the beautiful field. hugs ~Karen~

         You are lucky that this is easy, but that is a true sign of your ability to reach others, through your writings. Karen, that you find ‘easy’ and like ‘frolicking’ is sometimes very time-consuming and arduous to others! I am amazed at this, because you show symbolism and meaning in these ‘brief strokes’ of genius! Like a fine painter…

    Beautiful photograph, beautiful poem. Each enhances the other. I remember fields of sunflowers in Austria in which one could easily get lost.

          You’re quite welcome. No worries about how long it takes to respond. We all have other things besides this blog, going on in our lives. I hope you’re doing “well.” Once I get caught up here on my blog responding to everyone I’ll be over to your blog to see what you’re up to. I was away for awhile, myself, so I have a lot of catching up to do. Take care. I hope all is well in your world.
          Peace out,
          Tammy:)

    great post, very informative. I ponder why the
    opposite specialists of this sector don’t realize this.

    You should continue your writing. I’m sure, you’ve a great readers’ base already!
