  6. I wonder if the clipping makes them that way, or whether they're just naturally a bit . . . swannish!

    Nice poem!

  10. You've pulled so much from that photo Suz! How many people out there are living just that life, of clipped wings and so much emotion locked up behind dignity. I love, love, love this.

  12. OK, are you ready?

    She hung her head and shed a tear,
    Frank had run off with Randall.
    "Not again," she said quietly to herself.

    See! I'm getting better at this;)
