It seems to be happening with greater frequency or I'm paying closer attention. So many things were left here that I've found to be the exact thing I need for my life here. It's worth a post in itself someday.Teresa Evangelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05495114564099989481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1613729047769383491.post-41886852313684658502011-05-01T07:06:14.441-05:002011-05-01T07:06:14.441-05:00Pablo Neruda was an incredible poet.

There is something so visceral and yet intelligent about the the way he frames thoughts and ideas. <br /><br />Glad you found an old green vase.

I also mentioned that spring has finally sprung here in the KC area and all the chores I've been getting done.

It's cold and gloomy here. Yes, they always fade quickly once picked, but I cannot resist a small bouquet.

I know what you mean by not getting on with Neruda at times, but there are some of his poems which really speak to me.Frikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167831642088694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1613729047769383491.post-46107074766978772842011-04-30T14:52:48.406-05:002011-04-30T14:52:48.406-05:00Josh, Thank you.
