You have no set plan
in this colour by numbers world.


You live your life
     as best you can
          harming no one.


Preferring to be seen

        as weak

than wound with words
  that can not be unsaid.


Offering the gift of love
    unselfishly,
           humbly accepting it in return.

Park, its been too long for me too. You know how it is when life gets in the way of what you love to do. Sent you an email but I guess it didn't jog your memory

Bobby, thank you. I'm glad you liked.

Sue, where have I been? All over Married a truckie and travelled with him for a while. Then the bills started calling (yelling actually) and I had to go back to work. Hopefully I can come visit on a regular basis now.

TM thank you. My new hubby taught me this. The philosophy suits the man.
