What a right we have
In this great country we live
Our land of the free
Where we can speak what we want
Even in our poetry

You got me thinking this morning Ethel ... and very grateful to live where we do. Thank you for that!

I can't even imagine what it would be like to be a poet in a land where freedom of speech was not the norm. Very much enjoyed.

Best wishes and hugs,
/Kit

Ethel, I had wondered if you were going to submit this!  Thank you!  I hope I can make some room for this, as I think it a great addition.  Bridgett and I will be going over all of the submissions!  Thank you so much for including this!

(smiles) Oh Ethel, this is so very true, and I always love to take advantage of this gift too and knowing that I can't be wronged but if I was I know I am right! (kiss on cheek) Yay, may your words always speak from your golden heart, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
