  BRAVO!!! Oh my gosh, I love this, and too know this challenge on Mutington's Meadow. I used to post my poetry there all the time before I discovered Passions, and may return there soon depending on my schedule! (big hugggsssss) You have amazing talent, dearest friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Virginia, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
