Ahh, why oh why did I read this too late, dear Bob?! I had a frog in my throat a week ago! tsk, tsk I guess I should spend more time here so I won't miss writes such as yours! This honestly made me smile, thank you. And I continue to keep Vera in my prayers... Enjoy your weekend and thank you for passing by my poem as well!
