I think this would be wonderful, set to music. You have written this very well and the theme is all to familiar to so many of us. Nice work. Raynette

How often we fail to see what's right before our eyes, and we miss the simple gifts that hold the answers to our dreams. But they will not wait forever to be discovered, and how sad to finally realize what we've lost. A very truthful tale, beautifully written. Nice flow and lilting rhythm throughout. Linda :)
