Very apt, Patti. Back in my younger days I had the hots for a nice, very large for us, house in a new neighborhood.
The wise, womanly words were yes, we can afford to buy the house. But we can't afford to make it a home to keep up with the other Joneses in the hood. ..
Well Patti, good to see you coming in here early.. a lovely write and conclusion.. yes when falsehood covers us..we keep on deteriorating under its sheets.. you have brought a valid point out.. loved it..
and yes, some 'empty' things are only able to function, due to their holes, such as doors, glasses ... maybe a hollow person wil get filled up with love and hope again, some day. great writing of yours ! please have a good new week.
Excellent point and beautifully written Patti. That's something we learn as we grow older if we're lucky. Jim said it perfectly. I've been happier living in less than I have been when I had more.
Such wonderful authentic words Patti, as always your wise poet voice speaks volumes! And your header is so cheery and bright ~ it makes me want to go out and plant some flower seeds right now dear girl! Blessings!!!

You hit a very important point with your poetry. That hollow person is missing love.
Very wise.

We need so much to not be hollow. Nicely done.
Things certainly wont replace people in your life. Very good post!
Wisdom fills your piece vividly... nicely done.
Nothing can replace genuine feelings. Point so well made.
There is a lot of wisdom in this post. Love it.
Well stated. Nothing worse then a hollow person

A filled hole is a leveling off, a nothing. This is a great poem.
Your poem speaks so vividly about why it's important to fill those holes with self-love first. Awesome!
Love only is the real treasure.
Nothing else can fill up the hollow.
Very clearly and beautifully expressed.
There are a lot of hollow people walking around. Most of them don't even know it. Excellent Patti!

an interesting logic!!
oh my gosh looking at your header i cannot wait for the height of summer... bee balm, lilies... magic summer daze.. ah yes filling up those holes....
Patti. How nice. Indeed, what you say in the poem is how reality is...
So so true nothing can replace friends and family not Anything!
Excellent point and beautifully written Patti. That's something we learn as we grow older if we're lucky. Jim said it perfectly. I've been happier living in less than I have been when I had more.
Thanks for stopping by to see me. Hugs...Tracy :)
