faterider, Aren't you just a brave soul!  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

faterider, This is not an easy format to write in, you've done well. The theme is strong and develops nicely right to the ending. Doc |

thanks Sue and Paul for your kind comments...i am working hard on my second paradelle..let's do this a second time together, shall we?  Doc, thanks for the compliment! i was wondering whether my theme would be strong enough, since i was narrating a personal experience...thanks for your approval...  |

I think this format can be nearly as challenging as the one you've taken on in your life. You've handled it well, m'friend - I enjoyed this one... |
