Fathers

Listen to the whispering meadows ancient secrets roll down the hills scoop up forgotten voices like sparkling precious gems emerald eyes shine dreams their sacrifice our reward feel their love First place any form 14 lines or less (Brian Strand)

Lovely thoughts here. I often wish we could go back through the generations to thank them and to show them what we have become. Great win. Love, Joyce

Thanks, Joyce! I spent many hours working on my family tree in 2011. It really brought history to life for me. The sacrifices our ancestors made to settle a new land are remarkable. I was amazed by some of my ancestors. Thanks for reading! Blessings, Rhonda
