Aspirations
Some flowers might aspire to smell as sweet as roses in full bloom or their aspect if they could only think. Would they reflect upon their lives and feel it was complete? To be admired in shows would be a treat if vanity were theirs. I must reject some flowers might aspire to smell as sweet as roses in full bloom or their aspect for nature's panoply would then retreat. Variety of species could be wrecked and gardeners, with nothing to collect, would plant a mundane row and then repeat some flowers might aspire to smell as sweet. ·······  ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers. Larry D. Jennings MM Award Winner       |

What else can I say? Oh, don't you think it should be "nature's" in S3L1? deLighting in your flexibility, Daniel  ······· ·······Slow down; things will go faster!
