I had it written in the comment box but never sent it off. Having a husband home from hip surgery is filling up my days and nights. The good thing is that he is doing so much better than I thought he would. <br />Pussy willows are so beautiful at this time of year. The poem you share is full of humor and delight. I love the image of the little furry toes and the other humor you provided. Thank you for hosting PF and organizing the Winter Swap.Carol Varsalonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02589714711155938528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-19033351889385781212022-10-03T04:30:54.872-04:002022-10-03T04:30:54.872-04:00*swoon* The Willow Cats poem is a delight, Tabatha...*swoon* The Willow Cats poem is a delight, Tabatha.<br />As is your turtle pile PF badge.<br />And, unfortunately, I can relate too well to your memes. *sigh*<br />Just getting back into the swing of posting after my loooong hiatus/trip to the US, but don't have anything for this week. <br />Thanks for hosting and coordinating the swap and your general awesomeness. <br />(I have 2 days left open for my Poetry Palooza - I'd love to feature one of your amazing 10.10 poems on one of them...just a thought. ;)<br />Bridget Mageehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185985167366724404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-40817024344545503542022-10-01T10:00:41.422-04:002022-10-01T10:00:41.422-04:00Tabatha, thank you for piling us up here like turt...Tabatha, thank you for piling us up here like turtles on the floating poetry log (alongside which the pussywillows). I'm looking forward to rock-jumping from definito to definito...and I think I will once again pass on the poem swap. (Sadly it creates a kind of pressure for me that I don't enjoy, though I know that is, as Duncan would say, a "you-problem.")

You always do so with such grace. I was just thinking about pussy willows while placing some honesty (silver dollars) in a vase. These non-flower yet somehow flowery branches are ones I love.
