    First of all – the photo is gorgeous!!! Next – I was just having coffee and reading the Post – Gazette when I was excited and surprised (but why was I surprised?) to see your poem. I ran right upstairs to the computer to see if you had mentioned it – which you did! Loved the poem!! How did you find so many ways to describe our often gray city?? All those words!! Wow – Ruth — congrats.!!!!! Last thing – you do have a way of making my morning!!! Enjoy those grandkids!!
