This is dedicated to those feeling lost because a child has to leave the nest soon.
Now Lord seal this prayer in Heaven
and let it follow them wherever they go
for I desire the best for them
and behold the seeds, that they will sow
also this prayer goes out for others
for their children you will also keep
and allow them to grow under your safety
while we at times are sleep

Piet your image and poem are so heart touching. Each parent has their own way to deal with the empty nest syndrome. What a wonderful imagination you have. Thank you:) Karen :)

Other than a fabulous freeze frame shot, Piet, can't add much more to what's been already said.

A very beautiful capture and your poem suits it so well. I know this feeling as all our children have left the nest and I do miss them still, even though they have been gone a long time.

Besides being a fabulous shot, it is a good representation of parting with a loved one. The blue sky is a great color that blends well with the white of the blow weed.

Piete, firstly,I forgot whether there are dandelions in Africa. Now I know. Secondly, this flower does serve as a simbol of family parting. Very wise! Thank you for both instances. Nikolay.
