One of the most wonderful perks of blogging is the ability to reblog. I do hope you enjoyed the poetic writing presented by Diane as much as I did. It certainly made me think about my own experiences and lessons learned. . .What about you?

Beautiful writing. There is only with our mistakes that we can change.
Wonderful poem. Thanks for sharing this one, Sharla.
