I want to let go of all
disappointment that’s waiting for me
What I want is to live forever
Not defined by time and space
It’s a lonely place
That’s what I want
I go round and round just like a circle
I can see a clearer picture
When I touch the ground I come full circle
To my place and I am home
I am home
(madonna – easy ride)

Impatiens sodenii is an evergreen perennial that blooms throughout the year in the immediate coastal climate of California; killed to the ground by a frost, it will regrow if frost is not too severe; can reach 2.5 m tall; flowers to 7.5 cm wide; flowers of the type are pink/lavender. White cultivar ‘Madonna’ available from Annie’s Annuals:

"Impatiens (pronounced /ɪmˈpeɪʃənz/)[1] is a genus of about 850–1,000 species of flowering plants, widely distributed throughout the Northern Hemisphere and tropics.
"Common names include impatiens, jewelweeds, and, somewhat ambiguously, "balsams" and "touch-me-nots". As a rule-of-thumb, "jewelweed" is used exclusively for Nearctic species, "balsam" is usually applied to tropical species, and "touch-me-not" is typically used in Europe and North America. Some species commonly planted in horticulture have altogether more fanciful names, such as "Busy Lizzie" (the well-known I. walleriana).
"Some species are annual plants and produce flowers from early summer until the first frost, while perennial species, found in milder climates, can flower all year. Regardless of their lifespan, the largest impatiens grow up to about 2 meters (c. 7 ft) tall, but most are less than half as tall.
"These plants derives their scientific name Impatiens (Latin for "impatient") and the common name "touch-me-not" in reference to their seed capsules. When the capsules mature, they "explode" when touched, sending seeds several meters away. This mechanism is also known as "explosive dehiscence"…" (Wikipedia)

Madonna Trivia!
I have some clothing and it comes in a blue box with the image of Madonna and child on it. I was told it is possibly from the 40′s.
Answer by Kelly W
Well it might not help, but Madonna and her child, lola, have a clothing line called Material Girl at Macy’s It was launched in August. You can find more about it on Macy’s.com
