I just thought, I'll show them some 'hearts and flowers' and this is what I came up with.<br /><br />Thanks everyone for the praise. I really never knew if it was any good as it was a response to a little negative criticism. Seems like I do that. If someone says one thing, I set out to show them! So I'm glad it resonated. I looked out my window and talked about the hard life of flowers and dark nights of stars.Beachannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08638256396472533685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943152373837433678.post-25724968738039116932011-01-06T07:59:24.570-06:002011-01-06T07:59:24.570-06:00OMG Gay!
