thats a very smart idea, Harry. you did well writing this. and thats horrible, don't feel that you have to comment, just wait until you're better ): and it wouldn't be plagerizing, its only inspiration to write a poem of your own about Lenore's green eyes.don't let that crazy thought of yours stop you. i love you always.so until you get better. . -Always&Forever your sister spirit Lynn
