I don’t believe in fighting cancer.

Rosy Dreams gouache painting by Janet HovdeMy body, not a war zone,

But a joy garden

Flowering where cancer left.

    Janet, what a wonderful thought of a “joy garden”. And how creative of you. I couldn’t even imagine trying Haiku.

    While I am not glad that you are experiencing cancer, I AM glad to be on this journey with you. Thank you.

    I flower. You flow-
    er. He-she-it flowers. We
    conjugate our blooms.

    Thank you for sharing your blossoming soul!
