Dark Woods

Dark Woods In the dark woods is where you will find me tied to a tree. But how did I become here and why am I not free? In my mind I stir... Through the labyrinth of passageways I am lost. Surrounded by my own nightmares I scream. Haunted by my past mistakes, I ponder...Torn between the guilt and confession, but of the two what will I choose? Fallen and never the same sadness takes hold...

Not a fun state of mind, Meg, but when the sun comes through a clearing everything will fall into place. Ouf, how many oatmeal cookies have I made so far? Won't need to ask Isaac Newton.....NONE.:( I wasn't going to bake them for him anyhow! In this write you are lost and shackled. Oh, wishing you the best...Merry Christmas and a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!
