midnitesun...Thanks for the read. This story came too me about 2 weeks ago and I thought I would see what it turns into. I would really like to write a short book of poems for children that tell a story so maybe this will be it.Thanks so much for taking the time to read and reply...Paul "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" |
