The Wine of Life

The past has flown out the window The present is full of sorrow Look to the future for a taste of the sweet wine of life Your tears will change to laughter if you focus on what is to come Tomorrow - looming ahead like a bright shining star is something we should never lose sight of Let the dance begin! Let the songs be sung! Let the wine of life be poured into gorgeous goblets of purest gold!

This is touchingly sweet, Matthew! I think I will re-read this one often.:) Oh, thank you for the comment, I could so hug you!! You nailed it with your comment...the woodland ecosystem.:)) Hope you'll have a great and fun time in Vermont...we see the Adirondack mountains across the lake from us. Not so visible though on muggy days. Love Vermont! Have a fine holiday..Mikki :)
