That I will have to test out to see how sharp they are :)<br /><br />I liked you poem. Having lived in Montana for 8 years at one time of my life, I always enjoyed the few and far between spring like days we got in winter; gave me hope that winter would one day leave when we had a little respite from it :)<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041834369094012241.post-33603970591843682792015-01-17T15:18:42.752-07:002015-01-17T15:18:42.752-07:00Hi Sally, Happy 2015!
