A beautiful poem and words to live by. For this precious write, good luck in the contest and for sharing, t.y. Also, before another day goes by, I'm taking a short pause at work just to drop by. Happy Birthday dear poet and friend of mine. All my loving best wishes. May your life continue to shine.

Yes, we must. As time goes on I try to feel comfortable alone...not always needy. Of course we all still need friend hugs :)

"There was a tribe of feathered men. Who cares they may not know the math, the write, the craft but they are free from any earthy fuss: they fly like birds and God himself gives them the daily bread") P.S.: Lovely birds, Andrea. A bit sad ones.
