self portrait (a window seat view) a flower in a pot, held captive by her roots some say she's pretty, me, I don't know. she reaches for the sun with all that she knows and attempts each day to bloom. small things bring pleasures one day at a time children and puppies, rainbows and blue skies, dessert at lunch, for she's a taoist you see, and her pleasure count starts anew each and every day. but deep inside, if you could see, she doesn't need much to reach for the stars she just needs a different gardner and a pot with room to grow ------------------ ©1999 Iloveit |

Very well done. We all that pot with room to grow. No, Toerag, I'm not being facetious! It is an excellent line and the poem is very enjoyable. |

Yes, Iloveit - a pot with room to grow - not just out, but UP, because UP is where the sunshine lives, and up is where the Hope awaits. I'm waiting for you to change that pot. Look up, little one. |

Superb job, O&O... and with all the manure you've had to wade through, the blooms will be breathtaking when you have your chance to grow! |
