We haven't had a clear day yet, some sunshine here and there, but no starry nights like I described in my poem...that was from previous sightings! This poem is beautiful Sara, I really enjoyed reading this wonderfully enriching poem this afternoon! This write it joyful in its own right, as the roosters sing the lead and the parts! I would love to hear them sing that, this would be delightful! What a wondrous piece you have written my friend, Great Work!!
