It was nice to meet a stranger in the crowd
It was nice to see someone in secret
Flowers began to bloom under the gray eyes
It was nice to think of someone saying that
It was nothing but a tail of it
It was nice to hold my hand to my lips
Mixing sugar in tea is very popular at this time
He smiled and said thank you
How many vows were made in his heart to forget him
When he was found, it was good to break all intentions
That thrill of unintentional touch was lovely
It was nice to see that with less attention
Tomorrow on the streets soaked in the silence of midnight
It was nice to walk in front of your memories
How can I call this claim bad?
Whenever he came in front, he felt unfaithful
About the Creator
National Senior Citizens Day (April 21)
We are fortunate to live in a time when so many of our elderly are living lives of unexpected health and financial security, but such was not always the case. Throughout history old age was not something an individual expected to reach, and so we lost the wisdom and experience of these individuals at an early age. Senior Citizen Day celebrates the fact that these keepers of wisdom are staying with us longer each year, and in better health.

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.
