You always have such a great way with getting a point across with so few words. Like sunshine said you do have to look behind the words to sometimes figure out the meaning but that is what makes your writing so interesting each and every time. Your very talented! Dreamgal ![]() |

It's the rare snowman that sports an Ascorti pipe or gold doubloon eyes. Do yeti know of corncobs? Do corncobs know of yeti? A good thought-provoking poem you have posted. Thanks. |
