again, a lovely piece,
“except”, hahahahaha, forgive my remakes, remember, they are purely suggestions.
case in point:
Little brown sparrow
singing goodnight, to the sun
in the soft twilight
once again, one word disrupted the flow.
either singing to the sun, or singing to the world, it’s goodnight. still a good thought from you.
think about it.
you remind me of myself, doing things on the first take, then in hind sight, seeing things in a different light, an assumption on my part.
