Lovely sight I behold, fall delight sheathed in gold. Childhood swing, chosen tree. Deep-wood path beckons me. Rough wood fence . . . all of these, stuff of sweet memories.

Your words make for lovely reading Janice. They ooze warmth like the picture itself. I almost want to explore through another verse of your poem what lies around the corner in the picture. Cheers - Gary
