*"I Sit And Think"* “I sit beside the fire and think Of all that I have seen, Of meadow flowers and butterflies In summers that have been. Of yellow leaves and gossamer In autumns that there were, With morning mist and silver sun And wind upon my hair. I sit beside the fire and think Of how the world will be When winter comes without a spring That I shall ever see. For still there are so many things That I have never seen, In every wood, in every spring, There is a different green.

Infant Mortality Down; Number of Vaccinations Down -- Jon Rappoport

Guilt because it’s been too long since you missed them last.”― Kristin O’Donnell Tubb In memory of Constance Marie Safford 07JUL70. She would have been 50 today but is forever 35.
