Love it.<br /><br />My poem is the first in a series about my volunteer time in Japan on a wonderful organic farm that teaches sustainable living and community leadership to men and women from Southeast Asia and Africa. My group named their field, and the characters are two dear friends who are this year's participants.Joyce Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02905709719444916488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9016603191533255832.post-13716884806411416682010-11-12T14:21:30.042-05:002010-11-12T14:21:30.042-05:00Wow..what an interesting story.
