Love your poem a lot AND want to try the App. I don't yet have an IPad but think I may have to consider it. Droid phone is too small and computer, too heavy. There is so much gold surrounding us in this fabulous PF and writers' world online. Will investigate the App and Happy Spring time to you. We had a heatwave and now it is cooler. But the sun shines and all is well. Just heard about the Impatiens blight so will be searching for different plants this year soon. <br />Janet F.skanny17https://www.blogger.com/profile/07488350213473016250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-55538101305963840302013-06-02T16:54:38.376-06:002013-06-02T16:54:38.376-06:00Hi Stacey!
