Martie~ You are of 'friendships' flock .. A special treasure to the heart of this lady. INclan~ Thanks, lady. You know .. it's funny that you should mention the 'sounds' of this. I can remember the first time I ever uttered this phrase ... 'flocks and flocks of Phlox' I was a teenager describing a field of purple Phlox to my Great Grandmother. It stuck with me all these years ... I am pleased for the Haiku phrasing that brought it to life. Thank you for noticing. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

The Haiku were meant to be, but As the Oriental they were to short for me Just not enough space you see. |

Oooh, beautiful! I love phlox. All flowers really, but anything purple especially gets me. *Krista Knutson* As soon as man does not take his existence for granted, but beholds it as something unfathomably mysterious, thought begins. ~*Albert Schweitzer*~ |
