Nice Diamante, Sal, I just got up and this makes me want to crawl back under the covers. :-) Thanks for sharing your poetic talent with us, my friend. Bill

Ooh. I love a warm bed.. especially on a wintery night with the window cracked open and the sound of rain. It is good for the soul, Sally, undoubtedly. Lovely :) (fav)
