I agree dear Cherrie. My grandmother had a small home and we never felt alone. We felt safe. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Yes, as I think back those tiny places always had the most to offer.

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree dear Cherrie. We can find sweet places if we look.

Brevity, logic and truth at their best. Cherrie! Those tiny places can shimmy, as you know, however - circling the mind, touching funny bones.. leaving smiles in their wake. What matters is what matters, eventually.

[Cherrie Palmer]

:) if I have my choice I like a shorter poem :) and it seemed to fit the topic best.
thank you Emma for the review.

I love the visual of the words compacted together. Moving.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Thank you Vicki :)

A family experiencing poverty can become so close to each other to make up for the fact they are struggling

[Cherrie Palmer]

That is so true, people with a since of entitlement are always put for just themselves. but those who are comforted with little somehow find a way to make room for one more.

"Love grows best in little houses, with little room to separate, When you live so close together, you can't help but communicate." Doug Stone from Little Houses I enjoyed the read...short but sweet.

I think that's true we raised the kids in a little house with one bathroom. with lots of togetherness.

[Tate Morgan]

This says a lot to me. It agrees with my own ideas that shorter and sweeter is always better.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Yes. For the most part I like to economize my words. Short and sweet. This logic works great with kids. The fewer words used makes for fewer chances of confusion. :)

[Gee]

Somehow the biggest hearts also seem to reside in the smallest folk, two of our closest friend bearing this out as true :)
Hi Cherrie, hope you are well.

[Cherrie Palmer]

I think that is so true. :) I hope you had a good Thanksgiving.

[Cherrie Palmer]

We have been doing well, considering the year, I feel very blessed

[Lorry]

And it makes you understand those weird sayings mums always say, like "it's always in the last place you look."
Or "it's always when you're not looking that you find it" So I closed my eyes and walked into a tree.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Doggone mom she should of told you to open your eyes. :)

wonderfully put...and it is the truth.
Those big loves somehow know how to squeeze in where there had seemed no room.
It is like two people who have been hurt in previous relationships, leaving little room for a new love,
and yet in those tight spaces they meet...and boom...love happens.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Yes, it is true. :) a true can grow anywhere

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A compacted poem that in its brevity makes a huge statement about the nature of love that may seem small but like Dr Who's Tardis is filled full with plenty space for love to flourish!

[Cherrie Palmer]

I thought up a different poem on the way to work (much longer). I couldn't remember the flow of it. So, I striped it away to this one simple truth. :)
