Simply wonderful Tinka. I have seen poetry narrated by animals and building, but never a tree and you do this so well too. This light, heartfelt poem has a serious message though. Thank you for sharing.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and who love you, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie.

This is delightful, Tinka! I like the way the tree is the "writer" and writes about YOU. It was worth drawing--a harbinger of hope remaining in a dismal spot. There is a sweetness to this one.

THE PAINTING IS JUST FABULOUS AND THE DESCRIPTIVE POETRY FITS IT TO A 'T' AND IS WRITTEN VERY WELL. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

How sweet and calming this is, Tinka and your painting is just beautiful. I always gaze in awe at the great old trees, wondering what amazing tales they would tell if only we would listen. This is one of your best, I think, as the gentleness of your spirit truly comes through in your words.
Take care,
Sherry
