When I was a child I had a dream that one day I would fly I did not realize then that dreams drift like the silent breeze the golden seas tranquility on my knees wings wrapped around me |

"on my knees wings wrapped around me" Too, too sad an image. Wings aren't meant to deflect sharp winds. They're meant to slice them! A pretty write here, Susie! |

I think I'm going to have to request a graphic for that image, Sue. It's forever YOU in my mind, now. |

I know this...my wings have been wrapped around me for many years. With some changes in my life, I am learning to stand and feel strength in my wings. I hold the hope that someday I will soar. Lovely, Littlewing...an image of which I can relate and take one step further in my mind. Thanks Patricia |

I think I know the feeling, and I especially liked the ending. "on my knees wings wrapped around me" Yours truly ~Broken~ Such griefs with such men well agree, |
