Dear Emarie

as always I loved your poem only had a problem with this line pours from poor fingers it impeaded the flow I will think on it I have a couple of ideas that maybe work love and hugs JayCee ("Quote:-For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.-Ivan Panin")
