I guess my previous information was incorrect. This PH biography seems to imply she died from smoking; my understanding was that she fell down a flight of steps at her home and broke her neck.

This poem created a relaxing feel for me. I would give anything to be able to just lay under the sun on a hill.

Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one." |
