Softened gaze

Softened gaze
Sees the world
A blessed place
To live
To love
To forgive
All

    Hi Ron, I wish I could be a poetic person like you. You're talented, keep it up!

    Thanks for the visit :) Yeah, it was my first frosty the snow man! Quite late in posting it because all the snow has melted already. It feels like it's already spring. Our closed porch is 80 degrees F today. Warm! But there will be a snow storm during Saint Patricks's day. I don't know if that will push through.

    Hey Ron - this is a good one. A lot of people these times and days are just about fighting and exploiting each other. No one just be nice to each other or help a stranger or forgive some one.
