This is so lovely and deep ….💕
💖😊💕
Wow! Really loved the strong word choices in this. I remember watching the wall torn down on television. Loved the last line. Wonderful work!
Very moving! Seems like yesterday that the Berlin Wall was dismantled.
I found a single haiku on it's own a really hard style to use, I struggle to do what you have done so well: convey big thoughts in very few words :)
Whoaaa, I loved your concept here using branches and walls! You're brilliant!
Nicely done
Oh! This is a great concept expressed with such wonderful language! Amazing!
“Icy, screaming hearts” beautiful line!
Well done!
Nice imagery
It's so hard to reach out and connect. Go too long without and you'll think you don't have to. Well done 🤗
Well done, my friend 💕😊💖💕
very nice Cathy, staying connected is oftentimes difficult 😀
Nice statement! :)
