At some point, fear needs to be irrelevant because safety is at bottom just a comforting illusion.hedgewitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13090696134322515899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9057172956502874716.post-51519950742461189202010-12-09T10:59:12.569-07:002010-12-09T10:59:12.569-07:00... and as always I'm blown away by your creat...... and as always I'm blown away by your creativity!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16619199535376925989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9057172956502874716.post-89005425489931928202010-12-09T10:56:26.518-07:002010-12-09T10:56:26.518-07:00nice...lots to play with here...i resonate complet...nice...lots to play with here...i resonate completely with the first one...just making sure i am still on the rails...smiles.Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9057172956502874716.post-56296539998697840082010-12-09T10:32:00.915-07:002010-12-09T10:32:00.915-07:00brilliant, so many prompts together.

I would guess that people in Hawaii or California also find it hard to believe that people grew up without knowledge of how to use surfboards.<br /> <br />I do have memories of the roller rink. I visited one in high school, and when I taught visited them with my grade school students. I don't know how popular they are right now; but, I do think each of us has our own childhood nostalgia.<br /><br />Your poem caused me to reflect on mine!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9057172956502874716.post-37667546513784543502010-12-08T18:06:02.082-07:002010-12-08T18:06:02.082-07:00Your poems are amazing.
