Withered from the east when a sere wind killed its bloom, my tree stands ruined. I choose to pass on the west, where its beauty still remains. [This message has been edited by Ratleader (01-11-2004 11:06 AM).] |

There have been some winds..... But I'm still here...and while I prefer the west wind, around here the east is quite exciting even if it does dry out your eyeballs! -- so no Shelley revivals from this sector..... ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ |

Ed...a gentle breeze has blown away the leaves and the sky is filled with blue, yet still the lily freezes in the garden.  |

RatL. It's winter-the sap goes down, coupled with the wind... Perhap, in the spring the tree will bloom. I've been fooled several times into thinking the trees in our yard were dead...Enjoyed. Glad you're back. We missed you. Sadelite |

Smiling... Two thirds of successful adventures are all in how you look at them...huh? That is some tree, to withstand the Noreaster...and keep the west side protected for future endeavor! TD |

I think I'm going to be grateful for mountain ranges... *G* for I've been told upon occasion that I'm full of hot air. *G* I like this very much, my friend... no one does tankas better! |

Ed, you do have a way of seeing all sides of a situation.....where others only look at part of it. I missed you too, Ed.  Hugs  Ethel |
