Your poem reads well, JLR. Even if no picture has
been included, readers could imagine the scene as they
read. Your lines read smooth with great imagery. I like
the lessons Pa taught the son. Thanks for participating.
Respectfully, Jan

Hi Jan Humm. I used the picture your promoted. I am surprised you can?t see it.
-
Ih, nio. That isn't what I meant. My words are praising the use of descriptive words such that readers could see a piture in their minds if no picture had been included. I can see the picture. 😊🐈⬛
-
Make that--Oh no. I dislike the fact these replies can't be corrected.

I replied yesterday. I can see your picture. I meant your words were so descriptive that a picture wasn't necessary even though there was the one from the club. Did that reply show?

Jan, Sorry I did not see your note back, I understand now even more grateful for your review and comments.

We can never devalue the lives of those that have gone before us, we know that the generations that go before, have sown value into us, and of course our values and value come through those lessons taught. Beautifully written Jim, this is a great post, honouring Pa and Pa's Pa. Blessings Roy

Welcome Jim
Comment from lyenochka
That's a beautiful memory. I am always impressed to read about parents spending time with their children that way. Great way to spend time to pass on wisdom from generation to generation.
I like your presentation to really make those words pop out.

JLR,
This is a well done ekphrastic ode to your dad and grandfather. It shows the love that was between you and how nature makes it easier to take good advice. Good answer to the club picture prompt
Keep writing and stay heatlhy

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Aren't these memories wonderful? And I imagine you have shared the same words with someone else along the way.
Beautiful and poignant, you tell the story of love passed down through wise advice and time spent together as opposed to things bought.

Comment from LateBloomer
Hello JLR, your writing is heartfelt, and it left me with the feeling of ahh.
Your poem reads and flows well and has good imagery within.
I especially liked:
Pa's rugged hand rests gently on my back as he
watches intently at my fishing line, stirring in
the ebb and flow of the whisper
(Good descriptive writing. I can see it..)
Beautiful photo choice. I think we all would love to live in such a place.

Comment from Lilly Flowers
This sure makes me nostalgic for the simpler times. Children are learning horrible behavior because of social networking.
This is a lovely poem to go with that terrific image. It is very nicely written. Best regards, Lilly

I love the harmony between the picture and your poem. This poem brings a lot of good, pleasant memories, there is a hint of nostalgia behind these words. I can clearly imagine this scene in a real life.
