A Sketch The season extracts color from the landscape, leaving black and gray to dominate the winter of a northwest climate. Veins stick out from oak and maple, and from a distance, parks seem full of large, round bruises. I don't know why but I need sparse statement.

I really enjoyed the vision through your words and I'm surprised no one else found this treasure yet. Take care.......Sue I am in motion I am blue Love is an ocean I'm anchored in you - Shawn Mullins [This message has been edited by Suetang (11-18-2002 07:26 PM).] |

When the leaves fall and the trees begin to bare themselves, sparsity is apropos. |

Thanks folks. This may be one of those where I will continue to prune until I'm left with nothing but "..sparse statement..". That's what goes with living in apple country. Smiling. Bob |
