From my window I see a tree Already deep in winter Bereft of all her leaves But standing strong Her limbs are silent There is no movement today Just a stillness that makes You stop to see The enormous beauty She has become And on this day I am thankful Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight......... |

Yo dearest RDB, It's great to see you here. I hope you are doing well. I remember the big trees of Australia. I visited a forest when I was in Melbourne. Love Bobby |
