Nice, I like the flow and near rhyme of the first and last lines.

As humans we can relate, strange though, we never stray too far from the nest. Saw a full moon a few days ago setting over the mountains in Spain, it was huge. Hope your weekend is going well Linda. Tom

' empty nest syndrome. ' So many can relate, I'm sure. This is tender and emotional, all at the same time. Your thoughts caress gently around me and my heart. My best to you, Linda. Hugs, Brandy
