Second Best

Neville


Notice of absence from Neville
If I get the thumbs up tomorrow from my Doc, I hope to be in Miami on Friday for three days before jumping ship and spending three weeks sailing around South America .. Sheesh, what we do to try n get a touch of inspiration eh' .. Take care while I'm away & please forgive any delay in my going quiet for a while .. Hope to return feeling better than I do write at this moment .. AGT's Neville 😎👍

Second Best

 

The

butterfly

starved herself

 of both sugar & breath

Then when there was nothing left

she delighted and settled for second best

        It’s a slow recovery,
        but I’m doing better.

              That second best allowed her offspring to come to the fore in the future.
