Herbert, this poem is pure brilliance. You held me from the first line on. You've described in such lovely words what a true family is. Hugs to you, CJ

Great poem Herbert! I think family can be so much more than the one you're born in to. I would have never thought I would consider a German man who lives in Australia and is a Doctor that also teaches to be part of my 'family'....but, of course you know I do!
