Say it isn’t so…. That the green goodness is  Forever alone.   Did the pic inspire the poem or did you write the poem first then find the pic -- just wondering (because sometimes I find a photo that inspires my thoughts and words).

Awsome! At times when the heart is angry, tongue put in work with no coner.

The tongue swing both ways the two edge sword. You hit someone they will heal, when hit someone with words and thoughts. Make Change! Wisdom
