Thank you for noticing it & for crafting a tug of a poem that says so much. It is exquisite, like this particular tiny yet potent plant. If you have time I hope you send this photo & poem out for publication. I am going to give the URL of it to my friends at DIG -Disability Interest Group. I think they would love to know about it. jan godown anninohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00091996699597066230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-31445266964147597682019-05-20T06:04:51.448-04:002019-05-20T06:04:51.448-04:00"And yet, she persisted..."
