Friends
 
  Each friend represents a world in us,
a world possibly not born until they arrive,
and it is only by this meeting that a
new world is born.

I understood his love of the desert and red rock country. I can't explain it, but I understand it. :-)

It is an experience beyond words. I fell in love when I travelled the Colorado Plateau in 1989, with a jr. college group. The air and the silence are a positive and uplifting presence to me, and visually I could not ask for more:).

"First Train Station Opened" - with a picture in sepia

Reminds me of an old favorite

Good afternoon, Lady. Thank you for the adorable graphic.
Did you write the poem?
It is great. Thank you.

I will try to get back later.
I have a busy day .... isn't every day busy?
After lunch, I made brownies. Marissa is having company this afternoon.
She will have two guests so I am serving hot cocoa and brownies.

Have a beautiful day!!!

Your "Undercover Reading" poem appears to be the work of Eric Ode. I suspect the poem as posted has at least a couple more lines to it.
