The Dickens poem that resonated with me this week was this:<BR/>~~~~~~~~~~~~<BR/><I>21.</I><BR/>He ate and drank the precious words,<BR/>His spirit grew robust;<BR/>He knew no more that he was poor,<BR/>Nor that his frame was dust.<BR/>He danced along the dingy days,<BR/>And this bequest of wings<BR/>Was but a book. What liberty<BR/>A loosened spirit brings!tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.com
