Just a Thought 1

Raking, through the ashes
Shivers rolling up my spine,
Knowing, some similar day
These embers will be mine.

Now THIS is an amazingly clever approach to the "bad hair" contest. It can be interpreted so many ways, Harry. Deep, profound and meaningful to me. Best wishes in the contest, my friend. Love, Carolyn
