What SpiritMother said: This is wonderful, and I've gone back and read your musings on this art; I would love to write something also, but the time is slipping away, and family illness is pulling me in another direction just now. I will come back and read all the entries, however! Lita

Hi Maa,
I just was reading this poem this morning by Charles Simic and thought of you:
Watermelons
Green Buddhas
On the fruit stand.
We eat the smile
And spit out the teeth.
Cute new puppy you have. Hope you are enjoying a lovely spring with new baby animals. -
-
wow, green buddhas ...
I love that poem ! 
I will never again be able to eat a watermelon without enjoying its "smile" !
and I might even stop swallowing the "teeth" ...
thank you, marcy !
