Just amazing, like a coming together of different people, different cultures Endless blue skies boast of spring over farmland, branches once naked stretch out to transform. Rampant is growth seeming wild and unplanned, tempting blossom and blooms to bask, to feel warm. WOW! A* for this one, top draw Love duncan X

As Francis knows, I love rhythm and rhyme. That's what I write, and it's hard to find here. I hope you don't go anywhere because I intend to read all your poems. Thank God, I stopped here. You did a wonderful job on 'The Green Hills of Drury'. I won't be able to stay today but as Arnold says, 'I'll be back'. Greenwolfe 1962

Ann, Wonderfully descriptive and visually beautiful. You transport the reader there. I live in the foothills of Mt Hood in a rain forest of Cedar trees. Peace, Ray
