I enjoyed reading. Few words with much said. The question is??? Will true human writers be here in the years to come??? Great Picture... I have been off the computer for a few days and now way behind. Have a blessed day writing away.............

Yes, I think that that question weighs heavy on many true poets' minds. Glad to see you back. Thanks for the visit, Paula. :)
