Artist: Ron Russel In Full Sail by Linda L. Dowd I travel the solar system, Swinging from a comet’s tail, ~Among 9 spinning planets, With my spirit in full sail. I’m hot like planet Mercury, I brim with Venus love. I’m in tune with the Universe And all its Light thereof. It’s to Earth that I return to, But it’s not where I am from. I hail from a distant star world, ~Far from your Father Sun. I swing from crescent moons, And soar among the stars. I slide down cosmic moonbeams, And glow like planet Mars. I’m big like planet Jupiter, I wear many a Saturn ring. I’m erratic like Uranus As thru' Milky Way I wing. Neptune bears his trident, Tiny Pluto’s far from home. I'm in perpetual motion, As merrily I roam. I travel the solar system, Swinging from a comet’s tail, ~Among 9 spinning planets With my spirit in full sail. “We are borne of star dust, and to the stars we shall one day return.” ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ |

Dear Ida ~ I can smell your home-cooking all the way up here north of the 49th! Mmm! Mmmm! I just had a salad with yoghurt and fresh lime salad dressing! Delicious ~ but it doesn't stick to my ribs. But on the bright side, it doesn't stick on my hips like the big Thanksgiving dinner I enjoyed when had our Thanksgiving several weeks ago! lol Did you make stuffing? Please save me some. ~ Could you email it to me? Love you, kindred sis! Linda |

I once took Saturn's rings and made a spiral staircase out of them but swinging from a comet's tail sounds like a blast. Well done and definitely in full sail. |

Mark ~ It appears that you are as creative with your hands as you are with a pen! Next time a comet swings by, grab onto it's tail! It's a great way to fly! lol Linda |
