Alone, Lady at the bar, Loneliness, Oberservation, One Shot Wednesday, One Stop Poetry, Pub, Sipping and smoking, Steely look
She sat there, in the bar
Proud and all alone
She wore a flashy dress
Baring her skin and bone
She had her usual drink
Breathed into a phone
She lit a cigarette
Her silence screamed “forlorn”
She had a look of steel
But her skin was too worn
She donned a lasting sneer
All chances she had blown
She now lived like the dead
Love, she had outgrown
She felt all cold and dry
A heart she did not own
She looked for somebody
But her eyes never shone
So she sat there, in that bar
Frowning and alone

How I write, is mine...How you read, is yours 
Well, I know that can’t be you… 🙂
You have a real knack for writing word-portraits of people you’ve never been, and evoking pity for lost souls.
You are right!! That certainly wasn’t me! 🙂 This was part observation and part imagination 🙂
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words… I really really appreciate that!!! And I am very glad you liked this poem.. and have nailed the idea I have tried to portray here… thank you once again… you are very sweet!
Have a gorgeous week ahead! (many hugs)
an authentic picture you paint here…you spot lots of people like this in bars..
You can say that again, Claudia! Too many people of this type spotted all over the place!
Thanks for stopping by, and commenting… Your words are much appreciated! I’m glad you liked the poem…
Have a GREAT week ahead! 🙂
Take care…
Ah, such a telling portrait! You have drawn the character with realism & sympathy mixed– well done!

Aahh… thanks a million, Marilynn… We come across such personalities in bars, and then we end up wondering the hows and whens and whys.. I suppose that’s what got me writing this poem… Glad you liked it… I really appreciate your kind words…
Hope you are having a LOVELY week ! 🙂
what a sad sad portrait you paint…having grown cold…perhaps someone will come along and melt that ice so she can live once more…thanks for linking up with one shot again!
I know, Brian.. a really sad picture… And when you spot these figures lurking around in bars, you cannot help but wonder, and hope that something bright happens in their lives, and soon too!
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful words… I hope you liked the poem (although sad)…
Have a fantastic week ahead!
oh i did like it….your structure was cool…every other line beginning in she…making this almost a declarative description…the off beat of the last couple with so draws attention to it…and nice flow…smiles.
gee… thanks a ton, Brian!! Your comments and appreciation mean a lot to me!!! (many hugs to you)
I think anyone who’s ever worked in a bar would recognize this lady, a faded blossom that was plucked too soon.
You bet, Eric!! In fact anyone who has ever stepped into a bar would’ve come across such a lady… quite a sad picture, isn’t it ?
Anyway, thanks for stopping by… and I really appreciate your insightful comments…
Have a great week ahead!
Absolutely amazing imagery!! I can picture this exact scene in my head well reading!! Flows extraordinarily well:)
Wowww!! Thanks a bunch for your generous praise, Mark! I am a fan of your work, and so these words coming from you mean a ton to me!!
I am very glad you enjoyed this piece…
Thanks again..
Have a great week ahead!
This is actually so very true…well done…unhappiness within shows through, and the saddest part is, remaining in it, and others cease to really bother after awhile. A usual drink reflects a repetitive placement (perhaps alcoholism) which many may think will “wash away” woes, however, when sober and waking, it all still remains the same. Excellent writing here! ~April 🙂
You have nailed this one, April… This was what I wanted to portray in this poem… a life lived, now turned into a sad flow of events…events that nobody really cares about… and how one tries to drown the misery of it all by means of a drink (or more), and then later, waking up to the same dreadful reality!
Thank you SO MUCH for your insightful comments and kind words… I am really happy to see you liked this poem, and saw in it what I wanted seen…
Hope you are having a fantabulous week!! Take care.. 🙂 [many hugs]
As I read this, what kept running through my head was the music from “Copacabana.” I think youc aught the jaded emptiness of the bar just right.
“jaded emptiness” – the perfect description of the bar, AND those lost souls too…
Copacabana.. I see where that comes in (sigh)
Thank you so much for your kind words, Glynn…. And I am glad you liked the poem… I really appreciate your insightful comments…
Have a great week ahead, my friend… 🙂 [hugs]
Yep… I saw her at the bar Saturday night, come to think of it. There were a few young ladies in the establishment who could have fit that description. You do a great job bringing the scene together through her actions and accessories. Awesome, Kavita!
Oh.. Thank you (a zillion times over) Adam… Glad you liked the poem…
And yes… we come across such women (well, people) in bars many a time! And don’t they just make you step aside and wonder ?!??!?
Thanks again for your kind comments… I find them very encouraging and they seem to point straight to the crux of my poems…. it’s really a treasure!
Hope you are having a fabulous week, Adam … I’m looking forward to your 160 this Sunday 😉
the word cougar comes to mind…i know this person have seen her far too often on my travels…a good poem but a sad piece…thanks for sharing with One Shot..cheers Pete
Aahh…a cougar!!! Well, not necessarily in this poem.. but yea, come to think of it, the way I’ve written it, the idea is not too far really…
Thanks for your insightful comments, Pete… I really appreciate you taking the time… I admire your powerful work, so your words mean a lot to me!!
I am very glad you liked this (sad) poem…
Hope you are having a FANTASTIC week with family and friends… (many hugs)
Cheers… 🙂
WOW…wat a sad person to be…when one grows old and out of love…I guess that image remains in a poem…t’will be too sad to happen to anyone…splendid write my friend.
Cheers.
You bet, Em!! Such a sad person to be! I hope we never get to that sad phase in life… In fact I hope she (my muse) comes out of it herself…
Well, this poem was part observation and part imagination… but I sincerely wish the reality part of it changed for the better, for this woman… (sigh)
Anyway, thank you so much for your insights…I much appreciate your kind words… And am glad you liked this poem too…
Hope you are having a fabulous time, my friend… take care.. 🙂
Much love..
Hi Kavita, this is exceptional. It would be interesting to see you take the character in this poem back into her past to discover what led her to this emptiness. 😉 This poem impressed me very much.
Hmm.. now you’ve gotten me thinking, Val… It would really be interesting to write about the story behind that emptiness… maybe I will write it as a sequel (or will that be a prequel? :))to this one… sometime later though…
I am very happy to see you liked this poem…. and thank you SO MUCH for your kind words and insights… I very much appreciate that!!! And yes, I would indeed love to write about this character…
Hope you are having a great week…
Happy Writing!! 😀 (many hugs)
That would be a flashback not necessarily prequel/sequel
Ofcourse it is a flashback! But as a poem, it would come AFTER this one… so technically, a sequel 🙂
Thanks for your comment and thoughts, passerby .. I appreciate it..
Have a FABULOUS weekend! [much love]
I LOVE this poem…
It’s my style, and its so true.
Great Job Kavita, and thank you for visiting
Galen
I am thrilled to see you liked this poem, G (although it IS kinda sad)… thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words!!!
Have a GREAT WEEK!! 🙂
P.S: Hope you’ve brought out the cookie jar, and refilled it with goodies :)…Take care Galen… (much love)
You have painted the picture to perfection…we all have seen them somewhere and if you’re anything like me, my favourite thing to do is just sit and watch people!!! I love the image you’ve chosen to go with it….and your ability to write on every level, shines through girlfriend. Where does your inspiration come from? Do you do a lot of reading or from just your awesome imagination. Now my post went up so late this morning, I have a lot of reading to do…and guess what…I slept in till after 5am!!! Whoohoooo…can you believe that!! I lovies you lots and lots…and will catch you somewhere on a page my dear friend. Hugs and kisses oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
Oh!! I am all about observing, girl!! Wherever I go, I observe whatever it is I can! People, trees, lights, you name it!!
I am thrilled to see you liked this poem… although the depiction is kinda sad… yea, time and again, we’ve all seen such lost souls sitting in a corner, waiting for nothing in particular… and everytime I notice such a shadow of a person, I wonder! Maybe that’s why I finally decided to write about it…
Thank you so much for identifying that here, Amanda… your words mean the world to me!!! Oh, I MEAN IT (but you know that already :))!!
Anyway….. you slept till AFTER 5????!!! Whoooaa!!! That’s something!!! Some lovely dreams eh?! 😉 Good for you… I hope it was a very rested sleep…
I am guessing you have a busy day ahead! Well, go on, and have a fabulous day!!!
But I am sure I will find you on some other pages too 🙂 Looking forward to that… Now I’m off to your blog to read your post! 🙂
Take care, beautiful girl…
Lotsa love!!!!! Mwah mwah mwah! 😀
this lady better stop drinking…nothing worse than a woman who in later years turns into a drunk — and you classified her well here….alone….bkm
Hahah!! I wonder which one came first… the drinking, or the loneliness! I appreciate you interpretation here, bkm…
Thanks for the insightful comments…
Hope you are having a great week! 🙂
At the risk of sounding patronising, I just wanna go over and give that lady a BIG hug. Sure, it isn’t going to fix her problems, but the world’s nothing if no one can break through your icy resolve with a hug. 😦
Yeah, beautiful word portraiture here, Kavita. 🙂
Awww… if only everyone thought like you, Tony… Hugs sure make this crazy world look better…
This poem was a result of observation + imagination… And I happy to see you liked it (although the observation was quite a sad one :()
Thanks for your kind and insightful comments, Tony… they cheer me up! I hope I could show it to that lady too… and then she would greedily accept my hug as well 🙂
Have a fantastic week, my friend… Take care… 🙂
P.S (many hugs! :))
your character is alive,
magical painting of your words.
beautiful job!
😉
I marvel at your ability in describing various characters in your work…
keep it up!
🙂
WHOAA!!! That is some compliment, Jingle!! Thanks a million for saying such lovely things about my writing! I am thrilled, and very very glad to see that you liked this poem…
Actually, the character in this poem was part imagination, and part observation… she made me feel for her, and so I felt like writing about her…
Have a LOVELY Thursday!!! 😀

Please help giving belated birthday wishes to heartspell, thanks!
🙂
Sure thing Ji!! Anything for you and Heartspell!! You are 2 awesome poets I know!!
By the way, loved your inspiring poem for today…
This is great. I can just see this hardened woman sitting at a bar waiting for fate to provide what only she can.
Absolutely right… that was how I saw her too…
Well, initially, I just saw a woman at the bar… then later, slowly, my mind “cooked up” a story… and somehow, I felt it wasn’t an entire cook-up really…
Thanks for showing your appreciation towards my work, Jhannet… it means a ton to me!
Hope you are having a fabulous week! 🙂 (many hugs)
Far too many of these forlorn souls in the world…I always wonder if this was a choice they came to, instead of facing the sometimes difficult work of keeping it al together and moving forward with their life in a more productive and less self destructive way. I guess we all have to make these choices at one time or another. Great vivd picture you’ve painted with these words. Heartspell
I so agree with you Heartspell… who knows under what circumstances they had to make this choice …
I also wonder… what led to what ? Loneliness to drinking, or the other way around?? Quite frankly, I don’t even want to know… I just want to be able to make these souls feel loved… and sometimes, just a smile can work wonders…
Thank you so much for your kind and insightful words… your comments mean a lot to me!!!
Hope you are having a lovely week!!!
Take care… (loadsa love) 🙂
Ah, I can see her quite clearly.
Sad old barfly …
Oh…you bet, Cindy…sad indeed… with an impassive face…
(sigh)… hope she finds a much more meaningful purpose of her life and existence…and soon too!
Thanks for your kind words…they are much appreciated!
Have a gorgeous day/evening…!!
divine……why she wants to be he ?
shift from warm feminine brain to cold masculine brain….
female has a natural selection to be feminine….means warm heart emotional intelligences…..
male has a natural selection to be masculine…means cold head logical intelligence….
rare now …..beautiful feminine sensitive females souls……all males society…..cold…insensitive…bodies….always in the bars of crowed minds…
may be we lose to learn…..l also vanished….so earn…..so called chained freedom…
in the sex and the city episodes…..alone..
love all…
Oh…I really liked your interpretation of my poem, Ram… it’s beautiful!!!
The male/female aspect of it – I had never seen it that way… now your words have gotten me thinking all over again…
“chained freedom” indeed! It’s time we all break free from these chains… but to what extent? I guess only we can answer it .. with time..
I really appreciate your insightful comments, Ram… Thank you so much… you are very kind..
Hope you are having a peaceful and excellent week…
Take care.. (much love)
Ahhh too many left by the side of the road of life alone. Looking for love but even the hope of that is gone.
Sad – so well played out
Thanks my dear for sharing with One Shot Poetry
Love from the moon
It really is quite sad, Leslie… With some, it’s the situation that getrs them alone…and with some others, its their loneliness and aloofness that gets them nowhere! Either ways, it is a sad story indeed…
My theory is, if you look for love, you won’t find it…on the other hand, if you give some love and share it with others, you will find more and more… but then, that’s just my theory… Situations and circumstances make one do various things!!
Thanks for your insightful comments and for your kind words.. I am glad you liked this poem..
Participating in One Shot is entirely my pleasure!
Take care, and have a lovely week!! 🙂
You captured that aloof aloneness so well. So sad that some spend their lives living in their past and don’t open their hearts to the here and now.
It was an observation really..and then imagination followed suit…
Bu then, it’s also the reality of many a life.. I wonder what’s the story behind all that aloofness… (sigh)
And I hope we don’t have to face it.. it seems very unpleasant! May those souls find companionship and some peace in this life as well…
Thanks for stopping by, and for your kind and insightful comments on this poem… I really appreciate you taking the time!!! And I’m happy you liked the poem..
Have a lovely and cheery week ahead! 🙂 (much love)
Lovely poem, very sad when one outgrows love, and can only feel coldness inside. I really love how you build up her image in our minds, I can really imagine her sitting there with her cold eyes. Great piece!
Apologies for not visiting much lately, been bogged down with work, and when I’m not working, all I do is sleep.
Heeeyyyyy… please don’t apologize to me, girl…jeeezzz!!! Take your time… and rest well… my poems won’t go anywhere! 🙂
I am glad you liked the poem, DP88 (okay, I am really feeling odd talking to a dead poet ;-))… heheh…jus kiddin’!
As for the poem, well, some part of it was a Friday evening observation, and the rest was my mind getting all worked up! But somehow I get the feeling, I wasn’t too wrong with my story.. cuz there are too many such “lost” individuals… dead in emotion, dried up of every living feeling! Brr… a very scary and sad thought…
Thank you for visiting, girlie… your kind words and insightful comments are something I really look forward to!! But let this not bog you down like your work! 🙂 This is you release from insanity 🙂
So…cheers to writing/reading and ENJOYING!!! (And sleeping ofcourse) 😉
Take care, and have a fabulous week!
Oh my Kavita you made me feel sorry for her, wish her glass was half empty instead then she could have met someone. Love your writing and the passion and imagery is very capturing. Thanks for always stopping by my blog, your comments make me smile 🙂
Wild Rose
My dearest Juliette, you have NO IDEA how happy you have made me with your comment! I put a lot of thought into the title..and you are the first person that specifically appreciated the meaning in the title!!! I am very very thankful to you for that… When I wrote the poem, I too wished that she saw her glass as only half full, and hoped that she find something to look forward to!! And hence the title.
I am very happy to see you liked the emotion in this poem… and thanks a ton for your kind and thoughtful comments… I really appreciate them!!!
Have a GORGEOUS week!!!
P.S: Visiting and commenting on your blog is entirely my pleasure… Ooohh..the belly dancer image is back in my head! 🙂
wow, i really like his one.
And that image, excellent
Wooohooo…thanks a ton, K !!!!
I am very glad you liked this poem…and the image! I am beginning to enjoy image editing 🙂 (and I am worse than a novice at it!)
Anyhoooo…thanks again.. I really appreciate your encouragement!
Hope your shows coming along well!! Good luck, and take care, friend… 🙂
This is a powerful piece wonderfully painted in words
It reminds me of an Edward Hopper canvas
Ooohh… I am flattered by this compliment… Thank you so much, Gwen…
I am very glad to see that you liked this piece…
Thanks once again for your kind words… I really feel honored!!
Have a fantastic week ahead!
It took me few minutes before I could associate the title with your amazingly descriptive poem, and then *BAM* it struck me..!! How insightful Kavita..!! Though she wanted someone in her life.. her glass was just too full to let anyone else in.. Amazing..!! 🙂
I am very glad you saw the relation between the title and the poem.. that was exactly how I wanted to show it! Thank you Ilakya… I look up to your work, and so, encouraging words from you mean a lot to me !!
Hope you are having a fantabulous week!! 😀 [many hugs coming your way, lady]
that was great portrait you did !!! better than any painter could 🙂 loved your poetry 🙂
PS : dnt get confused when you visit me back, i have the same blog template !
Ohh..thank you so much for your kind and precious words! That was a LOVELY compliment!! I am totally flattered!! Phhheewww… thanks again..
I am very glad you liked this (sad) poem…
And.. oh.. I totally get what you meant by “dont get confused”.. I just opened your blog 🙂
Have a gorgeous week ahead!! 😀
WOW..a very interesting poem..great flow and absolutely loved the portrait..you painted it very well with words..:) BRAVO! CLAPPING HANDS Kavita..:))
Wooohooo..thank you thank you (bowing graciously, and blowing gentle kisses).. I am really pleased to see that you liked this poem…
I know for a fact that I stink at painting (with paints)…so when you said this, I was really very thrilled! You made my day!! 😀 (see the size of that grin? That says it all)
Hope you have a GORGEOUS week ahead! Take care.. (many hugs)
Yes usually the title is what i look at first before i read the rest of the poem and glad we were on the same page believe me the belly dance is just the surface some day when you get time feel free to peruse my archive and just for your genuineness and sweetness you merit a follow so am following your blog now 🙂
x
Wild Rose~
I am glad you see it that way.. I put a decent amount of thinking into the titles as I put into my poems… words for poems come fairly easily, but titles – not necessarily 🙂
So, thank you once again for your kind words, AND for following my blog… I am thrilled and honored!!
As for the belly dance, I am adding you to my Blogroll right away, so that I can stay updated on your new works, and also read your archives!! Ohh.. the thought is very enticing.. I am anticipating some sizzling reads in there 🙂
Take care, and have a lovely time with your daughter.. (many hugs coming your way)
You did a great job of capturing lonely and hopeless. I’ve seen people who’s closed companion is a stiff drink. Really sad…especially when their glass gets empty.
It really is quite a sad sight, and a sadder story… Alas, there are quite a few such lost souls.. Hope they find their light soon…
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comments.. they mean a LOT to me…
And I am glad you liked this poem… Thanks again
Have a lovely week! 🙂
Hi kavisonz,
firstly,i would like to thank you for the great information you provided to many others and myself regarding Hindu names. i truly appreciate it.
about this poem, the description you gave remind me of the beautiful girl in one of James bond 007 movies. Loneliness is indeed very painful.
the imagery is fantastic. a very wonderful poem indeed.
thank you again!
Hey Mory…
I am glad I could give you some info on some of the Indian names… thanks for the mention 🙂
You say this poem reminded you of the Bond girl? …hmmm .. yea.. now that you mention it, some pictures are coming to my mind too! A lonely strong independent girl..more lonely than strong and independent!
Thank you so much for your kind comments.. and I am really glad you liked this poem.. your words are truly appreciated!!
Have a fantastic week ahead! 😀 (many hugs)
“She looked for somebody”
ah the pain of the looking sometimes
Oh yes!! I could see the pain in her eyes – a pain that she was so desperately trying to hide.
Thank you for stopping, and for your kind comments.. I really appreciate your visits!
Have a wonderful week ahead!
You captured the essence of the character excellently. I could just see her sitting there, lost but not admitting it.
“not admitting it” – that’s the key! You nailed it!!!
I am glad you liked the poem.. and thank you so much for your thoughtful comments…
They are much appreciated!
Have a beautiful week ahead!
I could feel the longing… pain…. and everything….
lovely…. you simply have magic in your words…!! 🙂
Awww.. that really is very kind of you, Anky… thank you so much!!! I am glad you liked the poem…
It was an observation that started it off, and then ofcourse my imagination took over 🙂
Thank you once again… me gloating already ! 🙂
Hope you are having a lovely week!!!
Love the flow of this beautiful sadness. Great oneshot!
Awww.. thank you so much for your kind words… I am really glad you liked this poem..Yea, it is a sad picture though…
I hope this woman finds her bright light… and soon
Cheers to that, and to a lovely life!
Take care, and have a beautiful week ahead! 🙂
Haunting and, sadly, true – they say “fake it til you make it” but sometimes you just fake it and fake it until all there is, is the fake.
Maybe not *precisely* what you intended, but it happens as you get older.
Immediately made me think of this song, “Love Got Lost”, by Joe Jackson (“Stepping Out”), sung by Marianne Faithfull, as a bitter middle aged businesswoman – http://blip.fm/~uh26k . (Again, I do not think precisely as you intend here)
You are so right about it all, Lawrence… they fake it so much, that after a while, all that is left is the faking! With no scope to make .. 😦
Yea, that was more or less what I was trying to bring out in this poem… Thanks for seeing it that way…
Am listening to the track now.. yes, it’s sooo like the poem .. A glass too full indeed.. thanks for sharing the link…
I really appreciate your visits and comments…. they mean a lot to me!
Take care, and have a relaxed and fantastic Friday and weekend! 🙂 [many hugs]
Having tended bar for fifteen years, I frequently saw this woman. Great job of capturing the loneliness!
Oh… you might have made so many such observations then!! Interesting eh? But very sad too…
Thank you for your kind and insightful comments… I really appreciate it!!!
Have a great weekend! 🙂
remind me of rod stewart’s you’re in my heart..
Ooohh.. that’s SOME compliment!!! 🙂 Thanks Fiveloaf…
Hope you enjoyed (?)the poem (wrong word for such a sad sorta read though.. )
Have a great weekend!
Brave, tough portrait, unafraid to show how frightening to not connect with self-love (?), with love. Hard to read (for me) this poem but quite effective. Thank you for post.
Well.. this was mainly an observation I had made a few times, and then ofcourse, my imagination 🙂
But you got the idea right… the lack of love (self or otherwise) finally resulting to a life so cold and dry.. or was it the other way around? Well, I guess that’s the question…
I really appreciate your comments.. they mean a lot to me… Thanks for stopping by…
And have a great weekend!!
u describe it quite welllllllllllll kavitaaaaaaaaaaaaaa u r awsome n the picture is alsovery lovely
Thank you so much, Rida!! Glad you liked the poem and the picture…
Hope you are having a great weekend, sweet girl… 😀 (many hugs)
Nice one, Kavita. I can completely picture her. In fact, I think I wrote about this woman several weeks ago in Found Voice.
OH YES!! I remember reading your poem…. And now, I am beginning to think that the idea was probably sitting at the back of my head ever since… and then my own observation some time last weekend probably brought it to resurface… phhheeewww… the mind works in really strange ways…
Thanks for redirecting me to your poem, Patti… it was sad but lovely read! I guess many of us have noticed such lonely men/women sitting at bars, that just sit there not knowing what else to do, how to make their lives any more interesting…. and then, eventually, we bring ourselves to write about such lost souls… (sigh)
Glad you liked this one too… and thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comments…
Hope you are having a great weekend!
Just when I was thinking of writing about people in a bar and the going on’s therein 🙂 I had an amusing (I find them all amusing especially such ones) character sitting next to me trying to get a peek into my laptop and trying very hard to make conversation with the girls at the bar (they are cute) serving drinks… and the manager (a caucasian man who’s obviously been here in Bangkok for way too long) was so not amused when this man tried making small talk and said – I didn’t know people like beer 🙂 hahaha…
Maybe, someday, I will write something too. I like your take though 🙂 it seems familiar 🙂
Ahaaa… observations observations… 🙂 Some funny, some just plain awkward…phheew 🙂 But almost all are interesting alright!
I would love to read those conversations, etc. in your poetic style… that would be fun! Looking forward to it…
Glad you liked this poem.. and thanks for your points of view… 😉
Hope you are having a great weekend!
You really do seem to be able to write about anything Kavita! Amazing! And you paint such vivd imagery with your words.
As for this woman, you see so many people out there who have wasted their youth, or have become bitter and twisted…it’s etched upon their face and painted in their eyes, which like you say, never shine.
Awesome work my friend!
Chloe xx
This one was ACTUALLY part observation – part imagination, Chloe… I saw this lonely middle-aged lady at the bar, and then in minutes, a story made its way into my head! Her aloofness, expression and behavior totally got me thinking!
Glad you liked the read… And once again, thank you for this shower of praise.. I am overwhelmed… but I accept it all very HAPPILY 😀
Have a gorgeous weekend sweetheart…
Don’t be overwhelmed…it’s so true that you can create really vivid characters in your writing..and don’t ‘they’ say we should write about what we know (and see). Keep on observing – that’s what I say!
Have a great day – I’m doing my rounds at the moment…watch out for my little green icon littering your amazing blog!!
Chloe xx
Exactly!! Keep observing, and keep writing.. my motto too!! 🙂
Glad you liked this one, Chloe (I so love your name…everytime I type it, I smile…it’s really a very sweet name.. I know I’ve told you this before as well.. heheh…sorry about the repetition)
And thanks a bunch for the visits/rounds! Your green icons are more than welcome here!! They automatically cheer me up!! 🙂
Mwaahz to you…
