A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed Against the earth's sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. ”

What a breakable and delicate thing a heart was, no wonder I’d kept mine locked away. ”

It is all about thoughts, choices and actions! Life is good! Live it well! ”
