Poetic Angel

Seventy three miles
if this ancient crow could fly...
in search of a Rose.

Seventy three miles
if this ancient crow could fly....
just a chance to glance.

Seventy three miles
if this ancient crow could fly...
two black coffees please.

There appears to be an epidemic of crows flying about. Coffee seems a poor substitute for a rose, perhaps that jolt of caffeine will be just what you need to gap the distance to your rose. As allways Harry, very much enjoyed your flight!
