SUNSET

How about all those TREES!? Gotta stick with plants and such. See HERPST, I have a poetic soul too, :P

I gotta get me a better camera. Absolutely beautiful!

I don't care how much it rains, when the sun does shine the PNW is about the most magnificent place I've ever seen.

Everyone has a poetic soul, everyone is an artist, everyone creates, sings, dances. Some people are more inhibited about sharing it than others, that's all. (O.K. did anyone buy that?) Nice picture Skidivur!

HERPST, Thats me, inhibited. Thanx for "nice pic"

MZWEAZELLE;
Thank you re: compliment, and KEEP IT TO YOURSELF!!

Oh ski, every time you talk like that you hurt my feelings! I feel so rejected. Sigh. Poor little old Colorado/California transplant me.

Skidivur,

I'm going to assume you meant "Don't tell the rest of the world," not "I didn't ask for your opinion." :-)

MZWEAZELLE,
Oh, goodness NO, NOT re: didnt ask. I highly value you AND your opinion(s) :) And, BTW, I got in some BIG ZAC seeds today :)

Did somebody say sunset in the Great Northwest ? More cold than poetic.

Okay, I'm essentially a newbie here. I'm going to have to look up BIG ZAC. Hope it's not going to make me blush!

balvenie, brrrrr! That looks like where I came from!

Oh no! It's both cold AND poetic!

Bill Shakespeare's words come to mind-

Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
Thou art not so unkind
As man's ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heigh-ho! sing heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then, heigh-ho! the holly!
This life is most jolly.

Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
Thou dost not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As friend remember'd not.
Heigh-ho! sing heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then, heigh-ho! the holly!
This life is most jolly.
