Thank you, Janet and Sylvia, for making the rounds of these professional conferences sowing the seeds of poetry like John Chapman...pretty soon Sylvia's colorful tights will be the stuff of legend, like Johnny Appleseed's bare feet, and Janet's suitcase will be as widely known as the sack on Johnny's back. : )Heidi Mordhorsthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16496427007514895950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31122236.post-68644312501674365682015-11-14T10:13:22.877-06:002015-11-14T10:13:22.877-06:00Oh, how I adore the quote by Bernice Cullinan.

I love the way the poem puts a scientist forward as a celebrity and role model.
