(The state of Carolina never entered my brain.) I can be really dense sometimes. And is Dana the Bug of A Bug's Eye View? I always liked her so much and wondered who she was really. Awesome!! =D I am laughing so much right now. My apologies dear friend. (swear words in my brain)<br />I love your poem. And I love the prompt. Those statues under the water are the very best protest against the policies of the PM of Canada. I would never vote for him... just to be clear. <br />Like Dana's poem, and by your title I am feeling a back to the womb comfort when I read through your lines. Serenely beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with me... the dodo brain.(no insult to you or extinct birds intended). I added your blog site to my list. The Bug is already on my list.
