Thanks Wendy for the poem. I thought I'd share two from my favorite poet. (I'd like to come up with my own, but I'm afraid I've resigned myself to appreciation of others' works!) First Fig My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends- It gives a lovely light! Second Fig Safe upon the solid rock the ugly houses stand; come and see my shining palace built upon the sand! Edna St. Vincent Millay from A Few Figs from Thistles (Just two whimsical pieces that pick me up from time to time when things get too serious!) Heather
