HEART TO HEART


I had so much fun visiting everyone today, what a wonderful time it was. I met some new people and made some new friends and got to visit some old ones too. I hope you all had as much fun as I did. It's funny how we can form such a bond with others so far away and some on the other side of the world. I love to meet others with my same interests and those who have other interests too. I hope you come back and visit again very soon. I know I can't wait to see everyone again and see what your up to in your part of the world. It's been so cold here today, even flurries at times. Visiting all the homey blogs and potluck dinners sure warmed me up, and made me smile too. I hope you enjoy the poem By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, I know I did.
THE ARROW AND THE SONG

I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For, so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.

I breathed a song into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For who has sight so keen and strong,
That it can follow the flight of song?

Long, long afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.

~~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
