PROMISE
Remember, the time of year
when the future appears
like a blank sheet of paper
a clean calendar, a new chance.
On thick white snow
You vow fresh footprints
then watch them go
with the wind's hearty gust.
Fill your glass. Here's tae us. Promises
made to be broken, made to last

ReplyDeleteI recently came across sarah-janedownthelane.blogspot.com and would like to discuss the possibility of paying you to display an advertisement on the site.
ReplyDeleteWe have a large customer base of clients prepared to pay to display discrete adverts, contextually matched to the content of the page on high quality sites like yours, and this can be a great way to generate an income without compromising your website.
Please email me back if you would be interested in finding out more and I will send you a follow-up email outlining the opportunity in more detail.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
I love the word ostranenie. I am going to incorporate it into my discussions this week and definitely use the technique. Thanks for teaching me something new early this morning.
