Cherie’s Place – Thought for the Week

But pleasures are like poppies spread,
You seize the flower, it’s bloom is shed;
Or, like the snow-fall in the river,
A moment white, then melts forever.

Robert Burns

Blowing in the Wind

    Here today, gone tomorrow. I guess that’s why we’re supposed to live in the NOW?!
