Stretch Screen

STRETCH SCREEN We study the flowers in the field, One by one... Discover their properties and what they yield, Numbering the petals... We classify them by leaf, and by their seeds, We give them names... Discovering new trees, fungus, and weeds, One by one... We catalog thousands, living and dead, Perspective is close... Unwittingly lifting a tenacious head, we finally see ... the field. -Edlynn Nau © February 19, 2019
