 I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is , I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years
And it pains me so much to tell
That you don't know me that well
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true


Took this outside the memorial service of a boy who died way too soon. The church steeple and the clouds seemed so symbolic so I added the birds to finish my tribute to the untimely ending of his life. This is my final farewell to Robert Ruiz (1994-2008)

Your processing captures the sadness of something like this.

Wow! You are so good at taking something we see every day and turning it into art. The processing and finish on this is just mesmerizing!

The subtle colours and overlay really add mood here. The square crop works well.

Such a beautiful poem to match this soulful and emotive image. Very well done. Prayers for you and for Robert's family.
