I've come across the poem before from time to time but never knew its origins. Those opening lines are simply wonderful! How tragic that the author died at such a young age. Thanks for sharing the information about it. <br /><br />I've always wanted to learn to fly but have always said that I wouldn't even want a "taster" session, in case I fell in love with it. The wallet has never been deep enough for it to have become a hobby, assuming I'd had any aptitude. Even if I'd joined the military at the appropriate age (many years ago), flying opportunities for women were almost zero in those days. <br /><br />Looking forward to seeing how this familiar story transfers to a totally new setting. <br /><br />Welcome back from your break, Janet!Anjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00580018261533290062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-61997290724738775642018-05-21T08:21:13.032-05:002018-05-21T08:21:13.032-05:00The basis of this book in truly incredible and fas...The basis of this book in truly incredible and fascinating.

Such beautiful descriptions and all from a man who tragically died so young. <br /><br />First chapter sounds interesting...Darcy's reluctance to be stuck in a desert is clear,wishing instead,to be at home.Looking forward to seeing how he and Lizzy meet and hearing their first words!!! <br />No doubt,sparks will fly!!! <br /><br />Best of luck with your book,Leigh.
