Ode to Water

              Greater part
                      of
               my body,
                  
                   white
               of winter,
       
       hydrator of humus,
             
             sculptor
                   of 
               valleys,
           
              washer 
         of wearables,
                                                                                                                                                                    I
                   I
               Owe
               YOU

Darlene De Beaulieu April 2, 2026 at 11:44 AM Hello Leo, It is nice to meet you. I enjoyed your tribute to water. I like it when the sunsets over a body of water. The glow of the sunset makes an image into the water. Enjoy your day Leo. /Darlene/
