Poison Ivy

I was dismayed to find this little plant growing on our land this week.  Of course, poison ivy is common enough throughout Eastern North America; I just hadn't seen any on our little plot of West Virginia until now.  I have actually been expecting to find it growing along the edges of the forest area where we have cleared the trees.  Poison ivy likes a bit of sun and is generally not found in deep forest.  This little plant was nowhere near the clearing, however, but was near our mulch box.  Perhaps the fertile exudate from the mulch stimulated its growth.  Every time I see poison ivy I can't help but get that old song in my head from the 50's by Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller called "Poison Ivy".  I've always thought of that song as being a sort of sequel to that other song by Lieber and Stoller called "Love Potion Number 9".  I wonder if anyone else thinks that.
