Experiencing Interruptions?

Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining

During this surreal time of social distancing, the unnoticed life in a small backyard surrounded with high walls, becomes a deep emotional experience for its observers. The call of poetry, while observing the patterns of clouds and an unusual routine of little creatures, will reflect the pace of nature and the importance of hope in life.
