Hi Ruth - Cosmos - thanks for the like - have read books about trees and they are truly amazing. Cheers. P 👍

Ruth - The Blarney Stone - now I know how Bats feel, hanging on to cave walls. How do they do it without a pilot's licence nearly bumping into everything. 😕 Blessings. P

Thank you Ruth (Cat's eyes) glad it raised a smile. P

Hi Ruth, thank you so much for commenting on 'Strangeness and Experience'. I love that you picked up on the 'walking antennas' line in particular. What were you thinking at Yoga? Just mulling the sensitivity of some people? Either way, thank you and keep writing 😃 P.S. I've just given you a follow on Twitter.

Thanks Ruth

I liked all the special effects on the Ghost of me - - -
it made us all look good!

Ruth, thank you for the lovely Christmas message. I'm not out much into Manchester, but I do think that I may one day really 'see' you. Assuming you're still in this area, of course.

Your natural warmth of personality is a WOL bonus to us all. Happy New Year!

Hi Ruth

Thank you for dropping in and reading a few of my poems this year.

I hope that 2020 brings you all you desire to achieve.

Thank you for reading and liking 'Ring in the New Year '

See you next year, when I look forward to reading more of your fine poetry.

As you may pass by my little ol' page
This poetical digital stage
May our New Year bring
Your best role yet
And
Leave behind
All of
Last decade's
Regrets!

Wishing Everyone on WOL a Very Happy New Year! I've really enjoyed taking part on this site that I've just discovered this year. It was a nice alternative to the usual social media platforms!😉

Ah, that's lovely. Thank you Ruth, same to you too. Thanks for all your encouragement, comments and poems this year. Hope you have a great festive season 😃 Tom

Yes Ruth - Techno's - and we have the nerve to call them primitive - given their limited resources they were staggering brilliant. Thanks for chiming in - or was it the abacus you were working on! 👍

Thanks for commenting "sorry for apologising", I really appreciate it.

Hi Ruth and since you ask Reiki was certainly one of these and various other forms of meditation following my NDE some years ago, the latter I think might have been a spur although matters of the subconscious have often helped me formulate my poetic style both on line as well as hard copy. 👍

Thanks for the comment on The Way I Write, Ruth. 😃 I do find it so interesting and would love others to let me in on their secret methods 😉 Maybe there are techniques we could all share and learn from...

Hi Ruth,
I liked the read of 'Blank Canvas' lots.
Yours has encouraged me to put my voice out there.

They say Greeting Cards are out of date
obsolete in this fast-paced world
but homemade cards are still special
when made by children
in some of their first Acts of Creation.

Thank you for reflecting on my work Ruth. I agree that home is where the heart is.

Ruth O'Reily.
what a cute name.
are you a character
from a book?

ROR! add an A and you ROAR!

And sometimes frogs end up as bookmarks when they get squashed flat. And cats like playing leap frog with them as well. That's when Quasimodi rings the bells - and plaintively he yells for Esmerelda. Thanks for your comments Ruth, always good to share a laugh. P.

Not to mention 'O'Reilly' as your surname!

I was just dropping off to sleep two nights ago, when that thought hit me. All I could think was: 'Cynthia, you're an idiot!' and I gave myself no argument.

Thanks for commenting on my poem "climate change". 😀

Yes writers are
real fighters
for the cause
without making pause

human pain
remains
their main concern
and he tries to turn it into happiness

Waiting for Driver-less cars.
That was a Driver-less poem!

Hi Ruth, thanks for your kind comment on Lunar. I always enjoy your work. If you made some wishes on that big moon, I hope they come true 😃

Liked both your poems in Printed Words Ruth

Never Settled, Never Serious

The tourist seemed like a lover
who did not care at all
liked the link up with the trunk to the suitcase
and the circus to the clown
the lion tamer watching
maybe fate to reel him in
when all the travelling is done.
