yet are witness about
damage and the
architectural presence
of
Dallas residents want
beautiful, tree lined
neighborhoods, yet buy lots
and destroy established eco
systems - the build thin
2,000 sq. ft homes, pools
+ 2 story garages. Insanity.
TRUE BEAUTY is at
our fingertips. To the most
humbled little moth, in
the expensive face of a
spider, in a sparrow, a
cloud a tree, a dandelion
for God's sake.
I am a dandelion. - Rights
