Roses Are Red Violets Are Blue

Roses are red, violets are blue
Through my telescope I spy on you
           But the idea was yours
          Even the unlocked doors 
Love thy neighbor is up for review

I hope you didn't see anything you need to work real hard to forget! Neighbors and privacy concerns create some more complex scenarios. Where does one person's freedom impinge on another person's rights? Interesting poem Cecilia!

Lol! We have a nosy neighbor that moved in with the sweet lady next door. He was always at the adjoining wall, snooping, I wouldn't be surprised if he owns a telescope. We built a shed to block his view...I think she moved him out now! I found it hard to even 'like' him, despite the verse in the Bible! Building the shed was the kindest act I could find...and we personally lock our doors!

Glad the shed blocked his view. Hugs
