So here we are in the month I love most. Herein you'll find: My Birthday, St Valentines Day, always the nonconformity of the shortest month of the year, and eccentricity - sometimes 28 - some times its 29 days long.
This year, expect a Supermoon on the 19th.
YEAH!!!
Season of Carnival here in T&T; Sun and Fun are the main Characters.

taste of his mercy and grace
in contemplation
birds fitted in flight sky high
and fish eyes cleansed in swimming
