Melissa,
I must simply agree with Mal on this piece , and say these lines are more than exquisite, no more can I say, Im not sure I have EVER been actually envious of anothers words till now!
Sincerely your friend
Rodney

So resourceful, quite contented
in her stance she strikes a pose…
Goddess of the woodland creatures,
sanctity to poet’s prose.

Melissa, wherever you walk is a path to glory. You are a beautiful writer.
Come celebrate with me, maybe a hit song,
I am not sure of the genre.
a hero song.
