You are reading these words
as I have written them:
Transparent as Lake Superior's water.
Clear as the night sky in the desert.
Soft as the petals of Arizona's poppies.
Colorful as October woods in Michigan.
Generous as the ocean pushing onto the shore.
Fresh as spring daffodils in your garden.
Dependable as the seasons turning.
Striving as acorns aspire to become oaks.
