Dropping like anonymous flies. The numbers rise. Stack a brick for the sick that didn’t make it. How many would take it to reach the end? We can’t pretend the end of the numbers mounting, no more lost loved ones counting an end to passings alone, saying goodbye on the phone. LGR(C)4/24/20 |

You are more than welcome. Not being able to get such a powerful piece out of my head and re reading it a number of times, I gave in and wrote a piece based on your words but put my "twist" on it. Given the core is mostly yours, I won't post it in an open forum without your permission. I'm happy to share it via kik if you have it my id is the same as my username on here or you could email me at yahoo.Co. uk again same username preface. J "Ignorance is the Enemy...." |

effjayel, I don't need to read it, thanks for the offer. I am delighted my words moved you to write some of your own. Post away friend. ~L |
