the Key...Published on Arbor Day's website :) by Christopher  Ewing

Posted on August 25, 2009

Just before I had to take off for three weeks for my job. I had contacted the Arbor Day Foundation to see if they might be interested in the poem I wrote about trees. After all they are all about trees, so figured why not.
I had to wait for their historian to approve it, and hadn’t heard from my contact in a couple of weeks.
Well tonight I thought, what the heck, let me check out the link she had sent me of where it would be IF they used it.
So I get a unexpected surprise, I find the link to my poem the Key is now on their website :):)
This has definitely made my night, and wanted to share with you guys.
Let me ketchup on some rest and I will be getting to all the wonderful works I have been missing while gone.
I never would have thought of anything that I have written to actually be published. hmm…maybe something to look into for the future?
Here is the Key on the bubble :)
Thanks guys for All of your support, it truly means a lot to me!
