So few words you wrote, yet they certainly create many images in my mind to contemplate. Well done! Sad, but with some comfort.

Beautiful lines! Probably true in many cases, too… I wasn’t abandoned and I went through phases when I sought refuge in books. Thanks for coming to play again 🙂

Thanks! When I saw the photo, the image of homeless children or orphans reading really stuck with me.
