Mask is set aside
    Blemishes and warts exposed
    Free to be yourself
    Thus it is in true friendships
    Accepted, just as you are!

Very well said, Dennis.  What a wonderful thing it is to be accepted as you are!

Ah, yes, the mark of true friendship. Being accepted and loved, just as we imperfectly are. I think that the wart problem is caused by hanging around this pub, which of late, has been invaded by lots of silly frogs! Those frogs are fun though, and hopefully not the cause! Lovely tanka from the tanka king!   Love, Sis    < !signature-->

Being accepted is refreshing.....even if you have warts......but surely you wouldn't want warts........literally speaking of course.
