Tabb-Prodigal

Out of error,a fear,
             Then a lie;
Out of regret,a farewell,
             Then a sigh;
Out of parting,a change,
              Then a trial;
Out of reunion,a relief
             Graceful smile.

Glad that prodigal came back. Keep the creative pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by and enjoying my flights of fantasy. Escapism is great until someone yells Gran or Sar....Sara
