Dear Kim, a circle of warmth enveloped me as I read your beautiful poem. So much emotion, imagery and love packed into two lines - amazing! I could see, feel and hear it all! Great title too! Loved the subtle, clever word play and rhyme of your couplet. Congratulations for your success in Rick's contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Table to table, I roam, making the best of friendships over the years. Hugs! Square dancing not in the cards at the moment. Praying for momentum in walking!
