New article for the site

Post by daiv »

Well winter time for me means I can get to some of those "inside jobs" like writing articles and posting pictures on the forum. I even just got some beautiful pictures of Pereskia guamacho in habitat in Venezulea to be added next.

However, I just finished writing the following article:

As always, I welcome feedback, criticism, corrections, and that sort of thing....

This article helped me alot,I needed to know how to get cacti to go dormant.
When thousands of foes unite, for my ruins plot–
If only You remain by my side, I then fear not!
I live for a hoped union with thee, it is my desired prize–
Or all my moments are spent- in the fright of demise!

Its really good nice plain English and covers some important points especially for novices like me.
And as the walls come down and as I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade recalling all of the times
I have died and will die.
It's all right.
I dont mind
I dont mind.
I DONT MIND
