such a beautiful tribute to your family and your journey from full to empty nest! I am just at the early part of the journey you describe, and am hoping not to take a moment for granted!

Life's greatest blessings regardless of the sometimes rocky road. Those moments of sharing and unfolding their love makes everything worth it. Even if they left you with a "empty nest" physically, their love fills you and every corner of your home. It's evident in your words. Well done and thank you for sharing.
Have a blessed day! Carol

Hi Carol, I am so far behind but wanted to make sure to get back to tell you welcome back and it is so good to see you again. Thank you for this lovely review and comments, dear friend. Love, Debi

This is a neat format. I take it that you invented it and made the rules. I will have to give it a try. I know that empty nest syndrome. The first time, I felt like crying, but then by the time I started enjoying it they all came back like boomerangs. By the time they all left again I was really fine with it.
This was a delightful poem. I enjoyed reading it.

Hi Beth, yes, I wrote this as something I could use a long side Sally's Circus poems. I am not big on free verse, as we all know I am a natural born rhymes, LOL.
But loved her style, so in answer to hers I wrote the birth of the Merry~go~Rhyme and it was well received so I do them from time to time. I will give you the link to it and maybe you'd like to try one.
I thank you so very much for the very kind review for my empty nest poem.. The older I get, the more nostalgic I have become so I write about it so I don't drive my family crazy.
I appreciate all of your kind words. Thanks again, my very dear friend.
Love, Deb

Just beautiful, my talented friend and fellow empty nester. I felt like you were rocking away in your favorite chair as you wrote this. Love the internal and external rhyming scheme of your signature style-- the Merry~Go~Rhyme.
Sending you my best today as always, Debi dear, and blessings abundant.
Love,

Thank you for sharing this fun poem with us. It flowed perfectly and accurately described a mother's and a grandmother's love for their children and grandchildren. Our greatest accomplishments.
