"Brush strokes of beauty". Just lovely, although I wish I could paint. My Mum is a Artist of painting, she is magnificent in her brush stoke as you have penned. She once asked me after reading some of my poems, how do you write these words, how do you find the way to write like this? I responded how do you paint the way you do and find the image with your hand? She didn't have an answer, as I didn't have an answer either. It is natural; just as your poems John, spectacular are your words of expression.

I am overwhelmed at your generosity Robert. My mother wrote poetry but rarely shared it with her children.

[Robert]

Well deserved my friend. Some choose not to share their talent, maybe it is their own private oasis and their release of expression. Or maybe they are afraid of rejection, who knows. With that said, somehow you inherited the power of the pen as your Mother, and as I have read your children as well. What else could you ask for in the pride of the lineage of poetry past on.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Robert thank you! I am so proud of my children and I hope my son will leave me in the shadows.

The trolling is just a cover for putting a low score into the ratings box guys. It immeadiately reduces the poems score and any chance of it being on the popular list. Its time for payback I think.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Sounds good.
