A Winter Spice there they stand, hover may be more exact, sand-colored strands of wild grasses with fuzzy, golden heads still stretched as tall as able giving the slightest gentle flutter in the tiniest of breeze they are poised above inches of snow yet appear untouched by its cold its weight its attempt to encapsulate a fascinating contrast to the pristine white the purity of an unwritten page they are as sage to this winter scene ©January 7, 2004 Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Virginia, first, I must say, the title took me in; second, you need to know this is going in my library. Third, and not at all important but only to me, is that I wanted to believe whole-heartedly you wrote it FOR me.... so, it is now tucked onto your own shelf. Kudos, m'dear. It is one of your best. |
