Oh the embrace of life’s right hand With a necklace of love and truthfulness Writing them on our hearts where no love Should take refuge or hide from the nest of others For without wood, the fire disintegrates Partnerships are for giving… Were we lay like a newborn in the belly of the stars With eyes that see full generations forever There is no sleep, nor day or night…but labor And I will depart as naked as I arrived….. |

now this, I like short and to the point without being too direct...if that makes sense I can relate to this because I work with people who have half-million dollar houses and $40,000 cars...sigh |

That's right, Lee. We will leave with nothing, as we came into the world with nothing. A good thought-provoking write. Hugs Ethel |
