Perfect!

I was going to waffle on about this great piece of work...and then I thought, I don't need to say a word, the poem speaks entirely for itself...this line sums it all up Perfectly: Completes the circle This is my favourite poem on this forum...and I usually head towards the dark ones. Thank you for this, HS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "With all that I am and all that I could be, I walk this earth and yet nobody sees me".
