    Laura, Congratulations on your success in the “From a Birmingham Jail” Contest sponsored by: Abe Lopez with this well said haiku. Your creativity radiates. (PS I hope to remember to mail a note that I wrote to you when I walk this morning. Thank you for your writing and friendship.) Lovingly, Dane Ann

    What a wonderful write. I loved the first line. Heck, I loved it all! So much said here in these lines. Sometimes the simple task of thinking too much can make us weary. We might be peaceful in nature, but a nagging thought can cause turmoil.
