Very image ridden even though so short! Envy you guys who can say so much in such few words. A great talent indeed. Have a good day! Scarlett

I can only imagine the beautiful place you live in, dear James. I hope these majestic animals are protected by law and can roam free as they bring inspiration to poets....Thanks for your comments too :)
