I am so delighted, I hardly know what to say. I love the poem, I am going to print it up, and keep it handy so that I can look at it often.
And I think there is something in my mind about those three things, all wrapped up with washing on the line, and watering plants, and drinking coffee. Faith, hope, love. Daily stuff. (We had three gray hens once named Hope, Faith, and Charity. And there is little more daily than a hen!)
I am working on a story now, but it is not coming easily.
You don't need to say anything but I am glad it is ok - and you are right about daily stuff I am plelased you like it - and you are right baout the ordianry stuff too - thinking of which .. quotidian is a word I love and it is a nightmare to put in a sonnet - as are words like topography so I do it on purpose !
I love your hens with their names - as you say they are very daily- have friends here with hens but nevner really get near them ( have been feather phobic since at least 18 months old and still am- no idea why")
Can I just say that I love hens too?! Though ours never had such appropriate names. In fact they never had names at all! I have always thought there is something very comfortable and comforting about hens :)
