Love the message in this one, Gregory. Sorry I don't see all your poems. It's so hard for me to keep up here. Anyway, congrats. Get your seven liner ready (if you already did the six lines)

Thank you so much, Buddy, and no worries - as you know I have trouble keeping up as well. I haven't had time to read and comment in weeks, but I'm hoping to get a break next week for JUST that. Blessings, my friend! :-) <3
