                                                         Morning glories race
                                                 
                                                    A planted shovel becomes
                                                  
                                                         A willing playground

....Yet aside from this, again, I found the true softness within "Your Beautiful Heart and Soul," within all three writes of "Yours" this morning!!!:):)~Smile, and I ask myself~"How could someone so precious, tender, gifted and beautiful, ever hold onto hurt!!?":):)~And then I realize, its but only a moment!!!:):)~"Blessings, Warmth and Love To 'You and Yours Always Laurie Ginn, Forever, John!!!":):) Bye Dear Lady ~

Smile~This seems to be such as a metaphor!?~"Morning glories race~a planted shovel becomes~a willing playground"....Well, who's the shovel? And, who are the morning glories? And where is the playground? Smile, these are the only three questions I have!!!?~For there could be many different possible answers within reality!!?:):)....cont....

Beautiful image, Laurie! You and Raul have mastered this poetic form well. I planted some morning glories near the screen around the backyard pool one year. They grew, clinging to the screen and bloomed every morning like a bright, violet carpet. Lovely poem about one of nature's most beautiful gifts.

Wow ... look at the contest ... the music of playing children rinsing the rancid air of care, ... the bloom of flowers shovelled under ... fantastic write.
