I don't remember reading your story of losing Thor, getting Valentine, but family stories told and re-told feel like the ties that keep us all together.

I'm sure Donna will have quite a few poems come from that experience. But I am thinking about Lucky. Lucky made it into my WIP verse novel. He was my cocker-poo I got when I was 11. Thanks for the memories. <br />Margaret Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04434866104385187658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-41805892417816224862019-02-08T17:55:58.217-05:002019-02-08T17:55:58.217-05:00A wonderful story and poem and photos.

It's a place I have gone to many times for inspiration. So thank you Amy for shining a spotlight on this potentially rich harvest of writing ideas. You have also provided a timely reminder about the use of free verse and the power of a repeated refrain.Alan j Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06077195459186935005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-45202626495780451912019-02-08T15:18:28.916-05:002019-02-08T15:18:28.916-05:00Enjoy your time in Istanbul.
