Sunrise,
Very nice poem, thanks for sharing! I would love to hear some interpretations. According to my son's 5th grade teacher my son's "non-literal comprehension" skills are a bit weak. During the PT conference, I had flashbacks to a college literature course where the "E" grade on my interpretation of Witman's Blades of Grass suggested that mine was weak too. :-) I think like songs or oral performances because I can hear the emotions along with the words.

Fluff,
I'm sorry you are alone this week. Where can we take this thread to help you feel better? I've never tried the chat feature, if that would help let me know. Or maybe chat with someone else.
