Perhaps, you don't see me as worthwhile as sufficient or significant Because I'm just simple Simply lovely Perhaps, I've not been what was valued what was expected or appreciated Because I'm so simple Simply honest Perhaps, I'm not the favorite the favored or the desire Because I'm merely simple Simply exquisite But, perhaps... in world full of twists and full of turns, Perhaps, in a world full of smoke and of mirrors The loveliest, the most honest, the most exquisite thing there is Is simplicity "I'll tell you how the sun rose A ribbon at a time..." - Emily Dickinson |

Gotta love it, and I most certainly do, MorningStar. If more people understood that this world would be a much better place and there would no no need for lawyers. They will come back, come back again, |

Aenea, as always, you have hit the nail on the head - no, let me reword that - you've gently, but effectively, helped the sunflower turn to the sun! I love your poetry - its wisdom, beauty, clarity, strength and power (strength and power, not being the same thing)! Owl |
