April 17th ~ Poetry Playing
The Pacific Northwest
Walk the shore with me
‘neath the towering Douglas Fir
where sharp wood resins fill my senses.
Tempered by a soft sea breeze,
moist earth, a salty tang, and
crisp, cold air.
This is the flavor of home.

Well that is great but it still sounds too cold for me LOL Inspired by your walk this afternoon?
Yes, inspired by my walk. It was wonderful!
beautiful. I didn’t have time to do a poem today, had to do my taxes instead (I’m not late, they aren’t due to the 30th in Canada) so i’ll do two tomorrow.
Teresa — I couldn’t do a poem on Sunday — I will do to later today. There is only so much time in a day and I had things to do that didn’t include sitting around and typing!
Lovely. Next best thing to being there. 🙂
Barbara — I am greedy and glad I had both!
How lovely! 🙂
Akelamalu – -thank you.
Ah,
a lovely northwest flavor there.
Also Quilly, the 22nd in Skagit Valley sounds good to me.
I have an appt. from 9-10 about 20 minutes from there, so I could meet you somewhere over there about 10:30 if that works for you.
Okay — I will need directions. Let me see where I’m staying and we can make plans from there. I’ll get back to you in email.
ths has a lovely feel… almost like i was there 🙂
Polona — I am so glad you enjoyed.
lovely words from the heart…. well done QUILLY!
Pinklady — thank you.
I feel like I’m there, reading this – and I love the fragrance of pine and seashore!
Susan — it is a special scent, isn’t it?
