Anti Isolation

When against
day’s light 
I tend my sorrows

warming stones
upon my shoulders
lay.

This write manages to be endearing with very few words and whether the stones are real or pyschic I feel their warmth. [Re Madre Dios..don't you think all mother's/women occasionally feel like we have been martyred for our children? That's what I was feeling being there as all those women[me included & 1 man] prayed.] Light & Love

Kathy, That's a bright and warming thought, though I hope not too heavy! Terry
