Edward, Your poem of parting siblings in a lasting short embrace captured the moment well. Serves to remind us all we're not confined to a given time and place. -Richard

Nice work, Edward. I felt like you had experienced what you were writing about. GL in the contest. You and I chose the same picture.

Thank you, L.Milton:-) I just realized it has to rhyme, though. Darn! I'm trying to get stanza 2 & 3 to rhyme, which is quite the challenge! I may end up writing another one. We'll see...
