Keep Us As One

Life is
a beautiful
but painful
commitment
why is
it that
so many
souls are
lost
by the
injustice
of others
we all
try to
succeed in
our
chosen fields
but obstacles
are placed
in our
paths constantly
art
is the only
way out
art
is
to
be adored
and
longingly loved
the only
thing that
will keep
us as
one...

Fleur...

You have hit the nail in the head with this one... I do so agree, as I'm sure many will... art is the only thing that keeps me sane, or at least a degree of it. Richard

Finally!!

I am now only just starting to get notifications (today) decided to revert back to my old gmail address, neopoet doesn't like my new one. It's like someone shining a torch in my dark little cave. I have felt like a lost sheep! And thankyou my darling, how are you?? Glad you liked it! :)))))))))fleur xxxxxxxxx
