Duty calls and the call gets louder I wonder sometimes why it flows this way I want to write and commune with nature I did not know when I said I do All the responsibility it would ensue.

oh if only we could sit all day and write poetry and admire nature.. but most of us are full of responsibilities.. if only you could be a lady of leisure..

Why, thank you, SO. If only. Well, I don't mind doing my work or what I feel is my work, but I understand how it is for young mothers who are up to their eyeballs with responsibilities. I only have a grandson with Huntington's Disease and my husband to care for now. Sometimes though we all just need a break. Thanks for the visit and the nice review of my work. Sara

Anne-Lise, I remember the days when I had small children and had so much work to do. It is not like that anymore, but the same principle still applies. Sometimes we need a vacation and sometimes just a day off. Thanks for the visit. Your visits add so much to my page. Sara

So well written about responsibilities that follow with saying you do, we never know until we are there, facing the reality. I love how you’ve written and also that picture fits very well

Why, thank you, IE. Yes, it is not easy but it turns young people into adults(well mostly). Thanks for your visit and kind review of my work. Sara
