Gorky once said, 'This universe is created with the rays of the sun and Mother's milk' I add 'Whatever the color of the skin of the mother' It is a very nice poem Where do people draw the line separating the North and the South?

This is a topic not often touched in the North, where the solution would have been a cold, hard bottle. What a beautiful, sensual picture of the 'real south.'
Incredable irony of how the south can reach down to bless the north and the employee can give subltantive salary to the employer. Love that is not only of another kind but also kind. It is a refreshingly excellent write. I really enjoyed it.10... Looking forward to reaking some more of ou great works in the future.
The milking of life........ flowing like a river of Babylon, from where the source you'd get, will determine the bonding, if you really care..............beautiful piece Cheryl.You're bonded now!
