Thursday Think Tank #34

*Poet's United Thursday Think Tank Prompt 3 February
A Pauper's Bequest

I leave you the laughs I haven't yet had
plus the love that I keep in my heart.

Thus will laughter increase!

(And my love will not cease
because I have fallen apart!)

    One of the things I've learned during A River of Stones is the value of saying much with little. You've captured something charming and wonderful here. Distilled it quite nicely.

    I like this; the magic of less is more, but the meaning makes a huge impact!

    I just read your post on Napple Notes! Did that experience inspire the poem here? Whatever . . thank you for all the laughs you give us. I am sure they are inspired by the love you have for all your followers . . and vice-versa.

    Thursday Think Tank inspired the poem Doc- Napple just reinforced the subject matter for Jinksy!
