Peace and Harmony


Sender: Alienne

Alienne sent this superb viewcard to symbolise peace and harmony. I especially like the flock of birds flying across the sky at....is it sunrise or sunset? I leave it to your imagination :)

Extract from Sunrise, Sunset (Fiddler On The Roof):-

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears..
