Changes and Not

I was going to change my avitar again but this one is growing on me, so I think I will keep it. I made it last night instead of going to sleep and now I am exhausted. So, instead of some original writing today, I give you a poem from my great-great-great uncle.

"The air is like a butterfly
With frail blue wings.
The happy earth looks at the sky
And sings."
- Joyce Kilmer, Spring

  1. Your new little avi is adorable - and perfect for you! Two weeks ago I might have thought it a flying lucky clover - but today I know better!
