It stands with a silent invitation for enchanted guests to come and see what lies ahead, beyond the doors. . . <br />Your poetry. . . beyond words. That the stones lay rude and unresponsive, reminds me of the scripture verse that says if God's people don't praise him, even the rocks would cry out, to behond his majesty. . . <br />And at the garden gate of your beautiful landscape, even the rocks shine with the beauty of such an amazing creator to whom all praise belongs.. . . my heart is blessed!Sharon Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00695395104518983907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239437409050334506.post-50950977198946275002009-05-31T17:47:45.945-05:002009-05-31T17:47:45.945-05:00Looks good.
