A very nice, poignant view into the empty nest syndrome! Amazing how an economy of words can paint such a vivid picture! Carol

Cynthia,
Your precious poem is short, but oh! sooooo sweet! I can almost hear the soft humming of a lullaby as you rocked your babies to sleep in the cradle.
Smiles across the miles,
