Letter from a Friend

God's Wings

A little something to put things in perspective...

After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park , forest rangers began their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's damage.

One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground at the base of a tree. Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight, he knocked the bird over with a stick.

When he gently struck it, three of her babies scurried from the ashes.

  1. Treasured gift from a friend of a friend stripped of some of its clothes and personal sorrow.

    Thank You Pam, and Martha.

    Dedicated to Martha's memories.
