Pollen

Your words are pollen Delicate and powerful Clinging to my soul * They remain on skin Long after leaving your lips Tattoo of friendship *

    Amazing, Melody!

      Thanks Debbie! Your words are pollen….

    Pollen is essential but I wish it wouldn’t stick to my nostrils so fiercely. Me and pollen (wattle) aren’t on good terms, at the moment. But your words are lovely. 🙂

      Ha! I was interviewed for a local tv show about farmyards this week, and found that I was full of pollen after having them take several shots of me walking around among the flowers. This is the most gracious I could be about pollen! 😉 The flip side of being stained, as it were. My days of sneezing and dripping are over, since eating gluten-free. My allergies dropped away, once I had taken care of the main culprit that made me so much more susceptible to the others. So I tend to forget those days. Until YOU bring them back full-force! Your poor nose…

        I do wish we could see your interview, with stained hands and all. And that lily pollen sure does stain!
