My poems are written from the perspective of a woman being closer to the end than to the beginning!
Aging is not for the faint hearted but I wouldn’t miss it for all the tea in China!
I’m one of the lucky ones, I’m still here!

MY DREAM THAT WAS A LESSON FOR ME
A busy dream that was showing me my lessons. However steep and difficult is your path there is always help.

LOOKING AT LIFE IN A DIFFERENT WAY. TURTLED
Troublesome dreams when you can manage to find a wink is an all to familiar story. I do pray yuu never slip thriugh the angels fingers, and find your way back to happy dreams quickly. 🙏💖✨
Thank you for your gracious wisdom.
That was a lovely waffle. So enjoy yoiur channel,poetry and thoughts. I am going to go out and pick a few David Austin..(name eludes me now but they smell divine)..roses and think of you whilst I make dog food, knit and read. Go well in your day.🙏🌹
Thank you for sharing your lovely thoughts and knowledge . I too enjoy my roses and other flowers as well. I find that the best things in life are often overlooked, such as watching a honeybee enjoying my garden with me . I enjoy your thoughts and if we lived close I think we would visit one another. From Nashville Tennessee,USA
Thank you 😊! You are a wonderful lady ❤
Thankyou!🙏🏻❤️
Beautiful poem. I looked in the mirror one day, a glimpse of the side of my face, I looked like a younger version of my grandmother.

Hi NSW, moved over to WA from nsw about 6 years ago. Loving it so far, miss NSW the shops and so on but any place one goes to has its good points and bad. Lovely of you to reply thank you .
Hi the river berry poet, Fremantle is just down the road from me. Love Fremantle and the old buildings and the wharf area and the history of Fremantle. Oh been meaning to ask have you got the new car yet.
@@karendavidson4897 Yes we picked it up last week, had the RWC done successfully and registered it. All ours now! It’s actually really good, a few years old but you wouldn’t know. Haven’t parallel parked yet, or a supermarket car park so joys still to come!😂🙏🏻❤️
Back home now & feeling much better. Thank you for your thoughts & prayers, greatly appreciated.

Those cockatoos make me laugh some times, as they go home to their tree in the afternoon to get ready to settling down for the night. There is one that goes to the line and swings round and round for about 10 minutes, the others fly past look down at him swinging on the line give him a screech. I wonder some times if they’re say, look there goes crazy old Fred swinging again. I have become fond of Fred and wish I could swing on the line with him some days. Take care all 💐
@@karendavidson4897 They are real characters all right! Just make me mad when they ruin my tree! I’ve seen them swing around the electrify wires along the side of the road…like Fred! Galahs too! Enjoy them!🙏🏻❤️
As a younger person, I find this so wonderful and comforting and helpful in my life super currently, thank you for sharing <3
@@ReiaWilliams-n7p I’m glad you do! Older age does have its challenges!🙏🏻❤️
I'm just the same. At 61 I have literally never worn a dress except once, when I was planning to apply for a job to be an air hostess. My friends fell about laughing when they saw that photo, it was so NOT me. In fact in the end I don't think I even went through with the application. Probably just as well 😂
@@francespotter7697 I can imagine your friends! I’m still hoping I’ll wear a dress, part of me wanting to be that pretty feminine girl (old woman😂!)And I’ll never be!! So we’re fellow travels along this path of pants/jeans! So practical!!😂🙏🏻❤️
That made me smile! 👗😀
@@a.m.5374 I’m glad! 😂🙏🏻❤️
I can remember putting on such a performance because my wonderful mother was taking me to meet a relative I had never seen before. The dress was pink with layers and layers of some kind of frilly things. Then to my absolute horror mum produced a cardigan that was pink with more frills and suddenly l fell to the floor my legs wouldn’t work I couldn’t walk never ever would I walk again I informed my darling mother. My grandmother arrived to mind me ( mum must have rang her) and suddenly, miraculously I could walk again. My Grandmother who I adored, looked at me and said when you grow up I hope you have twin daughters just like you. I often look back as we do and think, thank god I didn’t have twin daughters just like me. How’s that for a waffle 😆
@@karendavidson4897 I love your waffle! I can just imagine the frills!😂😂 after reading this I thank God my mum didn’t have the time to make frills on dresses! Everything had to be I guess serviceable, plain! She made most of my clothes! Thankyou for sharing!🙏🏻❤️
What a great time that was, my sister and I used to wear little pleated dresses, the top was calico and each year they would be let down…we wore them for years… I was a wanderer and would walk through the bush, dangling my legs in the dams, how I loved to walk…no fear… My mother would ask people if they had seen me, oh yes they would reply, out on the main road, singing to herself, and she is headed for town…then I would come across a. Blackberry bush and stuff them down my front for my Nan to make a blackberry pie…mind you my dad was a baker, but he didn’t make blackberry pies…
How lovely and lucky to have been able to roam free and safe like this! Thankyou for sharing!🙏🏻❤️
I loved blackberry pie, and jam!!still do!🙏🏻❤️
@@LorraineYork my mouth can taste that blackberry pie. Thank you loved your story.
When I i was very small I loved to wear frilly dresses and what I called clicky shoes ☺️. That fondness faded rather quickly replaced by school ages. (Still forced to wear skirt,shirt, sweater for a few more years) I remember getting into a good deal of trouble for playing in the creek, mud, and even climbing trees in them as well. I do suppose this is why my mother began allowing me to pick my own clothes 😂. I can imagine you running wild, carefree with the dogs and boys ☺️🌞✨
I love these memories! Lovely stories!🙏🏻❤️
@@MGMG-lc2fe had a giggle, I can imagine your mother thinking to herself…. what the heck she can pick her own clothes. I think with daughters we all do that at some stage.

Beautiful. I found this poem especialy touching. I believe that ageing is a privilege & not a given. My brother died when he was 25, my sister died at 43, then three years ago my eldest brother died at 59. I miss them all terribly, yet am deeply thankful to have shared so many moments, good & bad with each of them 🙏❤️
@@carmengiles456 Yes a privilege,indeed. I’m so sorry for all the losses you’ve had, so many. You will have so many rich memories, as you say all aspects, they make the tapestry don’t they that is life. But not as amazing as growing old alongside of them🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
