with her care
before heaven called
every orphan’s saint

    Hood Winked!!

    Such emotions pour through this poem... so much is said in so few words. You come across a poem now and then when words need not be said because the poet has presented such a poem there is no words to be said in a comment.

    Ohh what a wonderful take!! Aww an orphanage, and the passing of it's 'saint'.
    Most have seen this picture as a metaphor for aging.. you have seen it is something so precious!!!

    The way you can look at a picture and pull something completely unseen out of it is amazing.. and always so perfect!
