Dividends

Partial to a summer's day
Never left the winter's play

Foolish each and every walk
Never giving in to talk

Finally down on bended knee
He spoke only just to me;

Invest soul'ly in me my loving son,
Find your dividends multiplied a ton

Partial to a winter's pray
Never left the summer's day

I especially like the fourth couple ..If we only would do that one thing this would be a better place to live..Enjoyed reading your work..Thanks for stopping by my work A Blizzard..That happened in 1993 here in the south..We had winds of 65 miles an hour with snow..First in my life and have not had one since..Sara
