    I think that this is beautiful, you use so few words to touch the reader, I really admire writes that are short yet so evocative.

    Awesome writing!

    I like it. Though I can't help but imagine that oak beneath the skin. At least for me, it's not a pretty image as at the moment all I am imagining is the oak tree. . . and well, blood and flesh. Plus, I can't help but think that it must be painful to have that oak tree beneath the skin.

    hehe Sometimes, I can't help but take the words literally. On the other hand, I like the image of seeing the nests, plus I like how when I read the poem, I get this softens.

    Overall, my understanding of this poem is that despite how that someone may be feeling, whether in pain or uncomfortable, this someone is still kind and friendly.

    Why is this stopped here? I can't help but want more from this poem because I know you have something amazing inside that brain of yours. I also see how old this is, lol.

    But I love this and am sad I ran over it now, because I'm about to include an oak in a poem of mine, haha! I'll explain it to you privately.

    BUT I LOVE THIS. As always, Mel. Lovely. Post something new asap.
