We too must take a rest, just before we start again
I have an acquired brain injury (ABI) after a car accident in 1978. I have hope, and at 62 I am always starting again over and over. Never give up!

Nature is so beautiful, If we only choose to see, From the cruel destructive hurricanes, To the velvet humming bee. Spring, Summer, Autumn, then Winter tries its test, Some creatures sleep their perfect forms While mother Nature does her best. There's beauty in our love and hate As in the sun and rain, So, We too Must take a rest Just before, We START AGAIN.
