Favorite Quote:
If it had not been for these things, I might have lived out my life talking at street corners to scorning men. I might have died, unmarked, unknown, a failure. Now we are not a failure. This is our career and our triumph. Never in our full life could we hope to do such work for tolerance, for justice, for man&#039;s understanding of man as now we do by accident.<br /> ~Bartolomeo Vanzetti

I wish I was a flower
Roots, leaves, petals and all
Growing in the fields and blowing in the wind
The forest running between my toes
While the trees protect my fragile body
This is a dandelion love affair
The physical embodiment of smiles and sun
I wish I was a flower for all to love.

I like this one to it flows better than outlaws, and again I love your concept. continues writing. Flow is something an author gains and gets better out the more they write.
