CONTRATULATIONS Ruth!!



Our own hoot_owl has received notification that her poem "The Sweetest Song" is being published by the "Ink Blotter", an online publisher.  She scores AGAIN, folks!!  You do us passionately proud, Ruth...  

The Sweetest Song

The sweetest song I ever heard
Was not the song of morning bird
Nor, from lofty choirs high
That pelted notes into the sky
Or from loud triumphant bands
Where instruments rung in the stands
No, the sweetest song I ever heard
Came simply in a spoken word
That fell upon my waiting ears
And touched my heart for many years

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah Ruth, good on you and Congratulations, lovely piece  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......
