Winter’s Majesties Their branches, bare only days ago, hang low with crystallized ice; reflecting sunlight like many tiny jewels. Ordinary trees stand proud in majestic beauty; crowned kings, by God, on this winter’s morn. What lies behind us and lies before us are small matters compaired to what lies within us. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson [This message has been edited by hoot_owl_rn (edited 12-14-2000).] |

Proving that a repeat of past treasures are truly lovelier the second time around.... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
