Improvisationfragilely conceived lady . . . 0 delicate green and wisteria stillnesses laid lengthwise on silver-tipped olive ripples . . . Yellow light rests quiescent, caressing, on glazed lavender waves. Ah! manifold stately luster . . . Ah! wind of apricot blossoms and lifting up of fringed banners in ultimate wistful procession. 0 fragilely conceived lady, lay your finger tips softly on God's bosom. He will like to be reminded of apricot blossoms. ___Nelson Antrim Crawford
