This is so clever, Greg. It says so much with so few words. Beautiful...and congrats on your win.

Oh, thank you so much, Carole, I greatly appreciate the kind words ... I don't do a lot of short pieces, but I'm heading that way of late, and I was quite proud of this one, but didn't get any comments, (until now). Your kindness makes it worthwhile - blessings, my friend! :-) <3
