Holding Us

by Michael J Falotico



                                                         the sky holds the rain..
                                                   the earth holds us up as toys..
                                                           we hold each other..

Very profound, Michael! You are creating some fine work. Where would we be if we didn't have friend to hold us? Love, Carolyn
