Being taken by the hand is: Being taken by the hand is such an assuring image and feel. It can also be a bold statement as grown ups aren't usually used to this, typically being led along by a child that takes the adult's hand. Brings to mind the statement of Jesus for our faith to be such as a child's, thereby allowing for our hand to be taken, not just to be brought to Paradise but also to be brought to the bridal altar. Very strong images here. Thanks for sharing.

Hi: I wouldn't worry too much about your trousers. As long as you can walk on the beach you'll be fine. And eat a peach, if you dare.

A poem that brings out the: A poem that brings out the Moet! Written thousands of miles away but very close to the avenue that lay under my feet. This weekend I was fortunate to meet up with a stranger who was learning English in anticipation of reuniting with his British girlfriend. Long story short, sometimes people on similar avenues meet up and that was a strange experience when more likely than not the people you meet would consider you odd. When introduced they annotate your introduction with, "He's a funny one." or "He's a bit random." etc., etc. Here's to keeping that inner spirit alive and kicking! Thanks for sharing, /Rik.

As land dwelling creatures in: As land dwelling creatures in a wide and often wild world we travel and connect with our habitation - perhaps a grounding that is typified by socks and grass stains as a feature of several of your poems. It is interesting how we are schooled and influenced by those who have gone before us and if we are so fortunate and disposed enough by our peers and contemporaries. Which of the next generation shall be marked by the ink that dries thoroughly on our sheaves!? Thanks for sharing.

Rolled trousers would drive: Rolled trousers would drive me mad. I would take a good pair of fabric scissors and cut them to length, if need be. But that's just me. Thanks for sharing.

This person commands respect: This person commands respect much more than the person who did his crying in the rain, from that older song. And many of us have this battle for composure so as to make this poem quite relatable. Thanks for sharing.
