Seashells

The hiss of the sea,
From the hollow of a shell;
Soft ocean whispers.

What a beautiful poem, Raul! You are so gifted! And I just learned today is your birthday. Wish I could sing "Happy Birthday" to you, but you're probably better off that I can't. (Not a great singer.) But my best wishes go out to a Super Souper, Raul! Love, Carolyn
