Thank you for the visit and congrats, Andrea. As I said to Paul below, this is the decade we are seeing many of our friends not making it...hence the inspiration for my poem. Hugs, Sandra

It is okay that I don't like the contents, but love the ku? Such sad truths in your poem - I've written about these feelings, too. Don't like these feelings! Say you know I'm kidding about content? Good job, Sandra, and Congratulations ... CayCay

Hi CayCay...none of us like the contents for sure. But I am witnessing the loss of so many in my age group leaving us recently...I appreciate your visit and support so much. Thank you! Hugs, Sandra
