Premium Member Blue Mushroom
Off the forest trails, where bushwhackers stray, Restless Mary ducked branches, left her screen that day. She was startled when a Horned owl flew A dragonfly landed on her sleeve; its color was blue. Braided ivy above made darkness at noon She tripped over a log, saw a glowing mushroom, It lit up her face,...
