I babysat one of grandsons on Monday/Tuesday and my routine melted clear away. Little ones have a way of doing that to routines ~ smiles ~ Glad I caught up with this feature at last, though. There is no greater serenity to be found than in the constancy, simplicity and beauty of nature. It is - and always has been - my 'go-to' place whenever I need a respite from daily burdens ... and all of these poems speak to that wonderfully and to the message that nature heals the human spirit. A fantastic job on this Poets and, once again, thank you for making these poetic interludes come together for us, Sherry.Wendy Bourkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475940407969993348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-17032204834014891452017-12-06T08:14:31.983-05:002017-12-06T08:14:31.983-05:00Thank you, Sherry.
