Vignette-The First Paperback

The scroll was undone
and cut into squares
making it easy to write on both sides;
Then sewn up,tested and tried-
Soon the Good News soon spread,far & wide.

I hope that this "First Paperback" will be yours, Brian. I believe that you can make many minds happy, and many hearts feel well, with your work. Fun how this is written, 'The scroll' that is 'undone', but soon to become another element. I wish you the best...God bless you and yours! Mikki
