Short definitely not easy. Searching for words not easy even in modern era. Keep the creative pen flowing and thoughts bouncing off the wall. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work. Sara

Yes , Brian , straight to the point , ain't easy , as every politician knows . It's even more difficult in rhyming poetry . You are also correct in that , this week-end will shape the 6 nations . At least we don't have the hand of Henry to worry about , but there are another 30 , who will worry us . " All should be right , for the red rose , in white " !!! ....
