Hi Dolly and Alan,

Well, having thoroughly messed up your interactive haiku and at the request of Alan I call "fainites" (that Dolly roughly translated means I can't be punished for my transgressions or I call a truce!). So here we go, back to the original follow on


one born every year
so, was Barnum's famous quote
exaggerated?

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Love works hard to bind
lovers who gave up their lives
to raise their children.
