I am laughing through tears, and no dearheart, not at your lovely poem, it was just...well as I read this: "help you untangle your mind" I remembered a poem I wrote once that referred to my mind as the world's largest ball of twine. *giggling and sniffing* Maybe we could hire a crew from Home Depot or something? and hugging you too thank you thank you thank you dear friend and sis. |
