What strange creatures we are, with clumsy legs and Outstretched arms.
What are we to say what we are?

To say we have all the answers is a lie indeed.
Because if we had the answers,
What need would we serve or be?

The task is quite impossible for our breed.
We will never touch the book of life no matter how Clever we think we are or how well we read.

To say enough about the beautiful strangle creatures We are,
Imperfection is our way and that is our charm

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

Favorite Quote:
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
