Writing With Emotions

OrangeJuice

I treasure the little things 
Things others seem to 
Overlook 
I never realized how much i have taken them for granted and how
Delicate and 
Fragile they are 
Until they are no longer there.

OrangeJuice

Hello, nimue,

I really love the word "delicate" here, because that describes this poem - precious and sensitive.  I do wonder about removing "and" in both areas, and making the entire poem lowercase. The poem may appear even more tender.

I imagine this is about much, much more than orange juice - at least it does to this reader. This is lovely.

Thank you,

Lavender
