A tiny light fairy dances on the dark surface of my disapointment. Her name is Hope. The dance ends, she bows and whispers... Maybe next time. Ida Werrett |

Dear Ida, I have never read a poem on disappointment that was penned as enchantingly as this one.  Love & Fairy Light, Linda  |

And even when we fear there won't be a next time, we're blessed to have had hope visit... however brief the dance. *S* This touches me deeply... I'm saving it in my library. *S* |

M: My father said "maybe next time" a lot during the year before his passing. The phrase actually brings me comfort now. I love the image of the light fairy, thanks! |

That's the feeling I got when I was looking at the new Corvette. Maybe before I die. Maybe next time. WT. |
