Testify

Waterfall symphony, strikes
Mother Nature’s redemption!
Our side of heaven, with
no gates…grass, greener.

    That's quite the interesting comment. I can fully respect that and I definitely grasp where you're coming from with that statement. As for those with your viewpoint, one can only wonder...but, a person like me would stand by your side no matter what. If, for nothing else, humanity's sake. Thank you for coming by here C.L.!!! :)

    Mr. Freeman, thank you SO much for this! I'm truly pleased to hear I ranked so high. Your words are very appreciated sir. @ Deb, yes the "waterfall symphony" are just a combo of two of my favorite things. It was my pleasure to read your work, I shall continue to do so. We all deserve to be seen & heard. @ Andrea, I firmly believe our Heaven should not have any gates. Thank you very much!
