Come! the ocean calls
Beyond that barrier reef
Across those jagged banks
Away from protections long used
For progress lies beyond your lonely peninsula
Enlightenment glistens from over the horizon
And hope drifts in currents unexplored
Come! your future calls
Outside your familiar
Where breakthroughs lie
Mankind lies on the threshold of harmony with nature.
A few bold steps to take
A legislation away
Beyond our fatal comfort zone
Breakthroughs await
For while we think, time wanes. – 6wordstory

May we all contribute to the breakthrough of compassion to aid our home world and all of humanity.
Unfortunately… some political action is often the lesser of two unhappy choices.

Awww. Thank you. I’m preparing my manuscript for proofreading, working on the blurb for the back of the book, Amazon description, book cover, and trying to come up with a marketing strategy for my Fantasy Angels Trilogy. It’s hard to also keep up with blogs, Twitter, Instagram, BookBub, Goodreads, and Facebook, but God knows I try. 😉 xo
