  3. Hey Elma, you are light for inspiring writers.
    Upon communications with the new writers/members whom have written me, I don't hesitate to send them your way. You can take a teacher out of the school, but you can't take the schoolin' out of the teacher. I'm sure, by nature, it's your heart that shares.

    Now, as for the speed of dark? The universe is full of light, visible and invisible. In most cases, the speed of dark is beyond what the eyes can see. If we saw all light with our eyes, we'd see nothing. Divine design is amazing!

    Anyways, thankyou for sharing! Your first poem reminds me of my first painting in kindergarten, "The Kingdom of God". You are a blessing.
