As always, you manage to bring beauty to the most lonely of places. Beautiful Uriah. Sincerely, mary

Um, yes, well, um...I think I should give up my pen. Another masterpiece here, and it's making me very jealous, Uriah, sweet one.
Yeah... who wants to be connected with sterile reality anyway? ... I like your verse, Uriah. dan
Even on steel and concrete building rooves you can see grass growing.Signs of life in the most unusual places.A wonderfully thought provoking poem.Love Duncan

Wonderful imagery from the pen of a true poet. Kindest regards, Sandra
