not left to be tall
jealous of palm trees grow thorns ---
bougainvilleas

I like bougainvillea but we can't grow it here except as a summer potted plant nor can we grow most palms because of the cold winters. I like your comparison of the short and tall of the two species. Your visit to my page was encouraging. Sara

Hi, I read some of your poems, I can see you like haiku, so do I, and I enjoyed them, thank you, one of them reminded me of one I wrote, I talked to the leaves, told them that I fell to earth...when I said God, please!
