Andrea, hopefully the grass is not the skunky kind! That would ruin the mood, although we seem to smell it everywhere these days. So, your beautiful scene I distort a bit, but the way you intend it is actually quite nice. Smiles. BTW, I posted a non-political limerick a couple of days ago. I know we're not always on the same side of the other kinds, but I still love what you do. You are a poet's poet!
