What is said at the beginning is well-followed by the language or the writing that comes after. I dare to say that you planed this poem quite well and the result, as I see it, is a success. I like this way of making poetry. Well done1

Same my friend! You are welcome at my table anytime (Austin/USA)!! I am not a world traveler…at least not yet! Who knows! If I do get myself to become less bound to the earth in the U.S., I WILL POSITIVELY let you know! There is nothing as heart warming as sharing conversation over a meal at a friend’s table! ~Wendy
