I am grateful for Mama Agua,
Mother Water.
Planet Aqua.
When we look at our home,
Our beautiful blue planet,
From out in space,
We see mostly water.
Have we misnamed
Our beautiful blue planet?
Her surface is 71% water.
Shouldn't her name be Aqua?
Water gives life
To all living creatures.
Water can't be destroyed.
Water changes form
From liquid water,
Gaseous vapor,
Intricate snowflakes,
Transparent ice.

Hello. This is a voice from your Western WA distant past. I am Nancy Swanberg. We served on a couple of PTA boards (Martin Sortun and Sunrise). Myron, our kids (Luke and Breanna), and I moved back to Central Minnesota in the summer of 1997.
Life has been interesting and good. I taught at an alternate senior high school for 17 years. Myron taught special education for several years and then worked on building a produce business. We are both officially retired.
On a whim, I googled your name. You look good...and happy. Thanks for the poetry.
