To produce a package for a time capsule that would portray my place on this planet, I provide these preferences:
* the puffy pouch of a Pink Lady's Slipper
* the pleasure perceived from a rainbow prism
* a Prickly Pear piercing the desert air
* the pounding percussion of a Pileated Woodpecker
* trillium petals peppered with pollen
* powerful roots pushing and probing below the Ponderosa Pines
* a pastel painting of pink petals
* the pacing pulse of a Phoebe in April
* the peculiar parts of a Pitcher Plant
* a penstemon propelling scarlet trumpets
* a pensive place beside a peaceful river
* particles of pollen packed in a bee's pouch
* a patch of pretty poppies
* the parallel leaves of a pixelated palm
* cumulus piling along the perimeter of the prairie
* the passion to prepare a persuasive, perceptive poem
* the patience to proclaim praise in a penetrating prayer
