April 28, 2021 Unique. Being human is an odd state. Being alive is an odd state of affairs. Eating, breathing, drinking, reproducing, pooping… and talking, dreaming, thinking, planning, understanding, confusing things. Love. Hate. Anger. Disappointment. Impatience. Eagerness. Desire… I know a bit of being human (which I am), I do not know of, must equivocateContinue reading “Attitude”

Feathered creatures work the water,while I watch.I am eager to observe their dayand have left the busy street behindto enjoy a moment’s stay. At random, sometimes in pairs,these (terns, I believe) sudden swoop and dive.A colourful kite might do the samewhen a tied on rag tail istoo short to control sway. Watching the birds, IContinue reading “My Life as a Bird”

March 19, 2021 It is Monday and the things I wait for have not arrived. I will crank the rocking chair up to 5 on the scale and will wait again Tuesday. In the time between, there is much needs doing and this day is not proving productive yet. I have already sent the bestContinue reading “A Pie-smeared Fool”

Feathered creatures work the water,while I, patient, watch.I am eager to observe their dayand have left the busy street behindto sit for a moment’s education.

April 13, 2021 It seems, most months, that the month is half gone before I even find a chance to get all of the bills paid! Sometimes, the month is half gone before I get out of bed! Wow, time sure moves quickly. Time moves so quickly now that I am able to witness theContinue reading “The Quick”

I have been away from my kitchen desk for three weeks. Today, I cleaned it up a little and sat down to start again. I have been spending my time over-indulging in food and drink but I haven’t been baking. I haven’t been cooking. I haven’t engaged in the myriad daily things I usually do.Continue reading “April 12, 2021”

March 30, 2021 While yet another of my close cousins has passed on, there has been no evidence of earth slowing it’s rotation or speed through universe. Nor has earth shown a visible lightening of it’s load. Argument, desire, life and laughter still resounds the hills. My cousin was a complex man but earth hasContinue reading “Drink Deep of the Day”

March 25, 2021 Good news for some, is disappointment for others. I am not going to die…LOL. (at least not today). I am back to feeling normal, as far as the heart palpitations go. There are only mild symptoms, the kind I have had as long as I can remember. A little extra hard lubContinue reading “Closing In On Easter”

March 22, 2021 Today’s date should figure out which it is going to be: 22, 20, 21? I am at yet another of those silly crossroads where I have to figure out what it is I am going to be. You would think I was living in Venice, on the island, with little bridges everywhereContinue reading “Gratitude?”

March 18, 2021 Funny, I actually have learned a couple of lessons during my time on the lovely blue-green planet. That fact does not dismiss or mitigate the ways in which I still ignore the lessons learned. Ha. Like an ordinary fool, I go astray the mark once in a while. Occasional slippage notwithstanding, IContinue reading “The Lesson Books: Forgiveness (a cautionary tale in mixed metaphor)”
