I thouht to put it here too, so as many as possible will respond.


I have this fishing friend of mine, collecting sand of earth
Just plain soil to be specific, wich to him has worth
He heard that I was travelling, to different places there
And asked me if I could bring home, some dirt from everywhere

So I thought of all those poets, coming to Tampa town
I'm sure it would be possible, for you to take some down
He just needs a tiny bit, but labled where you took it
It is a strange collectors item, that I must admit

When I'm back he will be thrilled when I'll display them there
I'll take a pic from his big smile wich I with you will share
His father has this fishing pond where I am catching trout
And those big goodlooking salmons that I talked about

So poets dear, when you come down, just grab some earthy soil
You put it in a little box, make sure it will not spoil
Mark it with the date and place, so he will recognize
Wich soil's from where and he will be so grateful to you guys

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Lovely - lovely idea~

AND ... I loved your idea of placing the soil in the little plastic containers that film comes in !

Love and anxious *hugs* awaiting your arrival~
