Yes, it is a very interesting form just for these occasions. But a bit limiting too, I mean it doesn’t let you go overboard. 🙂
Thank you.

I like to try out new forms. Sometimes they can really push you, but I think you are right, some are limiting.

A wonderful poem and a new form too! And now I want to celebrate! Sadly most of our gatherings are not for fun events but for funerals… How I long for these celebrations and mourn the cancelled family reunions.

I hear ya, Val. As we grow older, it seems we are attending more funerals and less birthdays or anniversaries. On top of it this covid has been such a spoilsport!
