Thoroughly Poetic Thursday hosted by

'AY
It was absolutely wonderful to get many hugs 😍😘from our girl.
I must admit is was very cold, dreary and blustery day for a picnic, but our spirits
were warm. We met at Bill Fay Park in Kinston, NC. The facility was very nice.
There were 3 covered shelters. The first shelter we saw was like a wind tunnel
with drizzle coming in all directions. Then we saw a huge pavilion style shelter in a grove of trees which helped with the wind. Crazy weather for May 30 in NC
Normally it would be at least mid 80's. LOL
Favorite BOL of Angel Madi had not seen his parents since December 26, 2019 either. The theme for May 30 was 'divide and conquer' see both sets of parents
even though they had to take separate trips. His parents don't travel anymore due to health issues.
stnding ov-AY-tions that is a masterpiece!!! and we hope for a real summer too... with a v-AY-cation...
ReplyDeleteWonderful that you were all able to get together to experience a Scotland style picnic!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you were all able to get together at last.

ReplyDeleteYAAAYYY! YAM xx
Such a totally fabulous - although COLD - reunion. I know the HUGS were warm and the time together was WARM so in spite of the chill, you shared some much needed together time. AND as if that wasn't enough you managed to work your fun into a wonderful poem for Poetry Thursday - that wasn't easy either - the "AY"s have it!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Pam
Yay for getting together after SO LONG!
ReplyDeleteWonderful news. So glad you got to see them. I know you've missed them so much.
ReplyDeleteSo tickled you were able to see your girl! Yes, that was a chilly day for sure but warm in any other way. Your poem is fun... I started to read and then just got in the rhythm. Good Morning!
ReplyDeleteFantastic poem and so glad you were able to get together!
ReplyDeleteso so so very happy you had your day with your daughter, no matter where it was... I hope you get to see each other soon again in better weather... you even fit the prompt in you joyful poem...
ReplyDeleteClap clap clap! Well done and how great to be able to meet up again in person. I know the feeling. The last time I saw my sister it was January 1st 2020 and for my parents it is even longer since they saw her. We are keeping everything so crossed she will be able to come in a few weeks' time, so that we can hopefully write a similar poem (or story).

What a fantastic day that must have been - a very joyous reunion. Mom and Dad are still waiting to visit with our human brother and family in Texas. No date set yet, but hopefully not too far off.
