Album Description:
This poem describes the "leftover" memories I kept when I worked as a nurse in a Mangyan tribe in 1976. I used scenes from Parks & Wildlife Center to put "flesh" into my time of reflection. This album is dedicated to Webshot friend, Ding (fdguin).

Nice album and poem, thanks for sharing.

Oh Mary Ann, I am so honored that you dedicate this album to me. Your pond reflection shots are so nicely framed. Your photo ability and your poetic skill place you heads and shoulders above everybody else I know. This is another place I want to visit when I return to the Philippines. This is so close to our university and I can't believe I missed it last February. Thank you for this virtual visit that is impossible only because of your selfless devotion to your art (photo and poem) as you share it with us here in WS. Bravo, Mary Ann!
