Beyond being so very literate, this poem simply glows with passion and gratitude. It gives me hope in humanity that such a person as you lives on the same beloved Earth as I. I feel very glad that you have experienced this and that I have at least a remote connection to your very special being, dear Elke. Warmly, Jim

Your warm words make me blush, dear Jim! I am just an ordinary person like anyone else. We all belong to the human species. We were born on this planet in different appearance and with different attitudes. We should support one another instead of bringing us down and fighting us. Thanks a lot for your gracious comment!

Oh Hell his filling came out. It’s sad that he learned to lie so well. I am happy he did not teach anyone else to do it.

Ha, ha! Thanks for coming back to this, Fia. I am glad to have you read this. It is nothing special or important, but I think there are a few things that fall into those categories. This is certainly very different from any other of my works, and I am happy I got this story out.
