THE VIEW

I was in my way to the office, 
when I was stopped for construction. 
I am listening to the audio version
 of Stephanie Dray’s “America’s First Daughter” 
on my drive time.

And as I sat there listening to this book, 
I took a long look at the corn fields 
on both sides of the road. 
There are few things more lovely than the 
green things that grow in the Midwest. 
But if you look closely, you will see the tiny 
delicate blue flowers that grow among the corn. 

It was a very nice way to start my Wednesday.
