I love your beginning,,,"the earth write its poems on blades of grass" I will think of them now whenever I am lying on a field of grass..which during the summer is often,,,

I'm breathing, Susie!!! It is a lovely thought.

I was physically a lot closer to the grass when I was a young child. Probably not mental enjoyment closeness though back then.

What a lovely thought... the earth creating poetry from its very center. I loved the line about "kneeling upon its sonnets." There is a magic about nature, and about how you portray it, Susie. Thanks, Amy
