Hello Jay,

I haven't been doing anything on the site lately, so I thought I would drop by for a while.

Your beautiful poem to your wife is the first thing that caught my eye. You definitely have a God-given talent for writing poetry, my friend. It's just perfect, as always.

Take care and keep writing...Bill

A Plea For Honesty by jaybird1

Exceptional

Hello Jay,

I couldn't agree with you more, Jay. Honesty is something that our country's leader has never had, in my opinion.

This is very well written and I especially like the way you close it out.

Take care, my friend...Bill

Star of Wonder, Star of Night by l.raven

Hello Linda,

Thank you for all your well wishes for the upcoming holidays, I really appreciate it. This will be a Christmas season that none of us all around the world will ever forget.

The Bible verse that you mentioned is just perfect for our situation right now. We must put our faith and trust in Him, He will see us through...

I want to join you in thanking all the medical frontline workers and all those that put their lives on the line every day. Without their dedication just think how many more thousands of lives would have been lost by now.

And as you have said, a special thanks to our military protectors. Without them, our country would be in much worse shape than it is now.

Thanks again for your beautiful words of appreciation for those who truly deserve them.

It was great talking to you again, it's been so long. I wish you and yours a safe and wonderful holiday season.

Your old friend...Bill

Aging Gracefully by jaybird1

Exceptional

Hello Jay,

Your words are so very true. I hope and pray that you reach your goal of living to be 100. I personally think that you will live long past one hundred as long as you keep writing. It's when we stop doing the things that we enjoy doing, that's when we lose interest in life and just fade away.

I think that you have the desire and strength to live much longer than 100 years. I pray that you do.

Happy Holidays, my friend...Bill

Those Lovely Things by jaybird1

Hello Jay,

Your words and advice to the readers are so very true. A kind word and a friendly smile to someone who seems to be down on their luck will cheer them up, it always did for me.

Except, we must remember to do our social distancing when making these gestures...LOL

Take care, my friend...Bill

Hello Jay,

Your words are so very true. I just wish we all could follow the things that you suggest in this beautiful poem. I know that I could do more at times to enjoy life more, but it's almost impossible to stay happy all the time.

I wish you the best...Bill
