: The day had begun so nicely,
: the tempeture was down a degree or two.
: The skies were bright and cheerful
: without the smokey smell that we now rue!
: Yes, the magical Central Florida
: has been burning to quite a degree!
: If it wasn't for brave firemen, police,and hero's
: that usually you never see...
: Our brave paradise, of Disney and EPCOT,
: Universal and all of that junk...
: would be thought of as the treasure in paradise
: but now all that's been debunked!
: It isn't the plastic or fireworks.
: It's not even the tv...
: It's Gaia and all of her splendor
: that was defended by them, I believe...
: so I treasured the pleasure of coolness
: as I saw the sky dark today.
: and I welcomed each raindrop that protected
: and healed all in it's own way!
: And i smiled as I went to the mailbox
: inside the Post Office doors,
: for I knew that we were safe from the fires
: that could have killed so many more!
: I put my key in the lock and turned it,
: but a white packet was quite a surprise!
: And i ever so gratefully opened it...
: which took on the very first try!
: The packet was from Kaye in Scotland
: and you'd never believe what it held!!
: A huge bar of Cadbury Choclate...
: that could have melted in the fires of ....
: (well, you know that GREAT Choclate will actually
: fend off major forest fires in Central Florida these days???!!!!)
: Thanks SO MUCH KAYE!!!! You silly thing!!
