It is so resilient. But I do notice it, for it amazes me. Perhaps you also. Such a wonderful little write. Love, Shar

I've always noticed the clinging vine, and what makes it grow on the concrete, sometimes the fewer words said the better the impact, take care D-nyce

I got two meanings from this one. One, is the ivy covering the wall of a secluded old house. (A lot of those around here) Two, the ivy as an emotional take-over, going un-noticed to everyone else. (Something I'm familiar with) However meant, it's a lovely read going into my faves. (Hope you don't mind) :) Cheers, Alana
