Walk

The light at five-thirty on Friday evening was lovely.

Our tangled hedge is quite the hot spot

Early Spring?

The groundhogs in Pennsylvania and Staten Island had conflicting reports about shadows and Spring. Now the two geese that nest in the same spit of land, an odd triangle of grass near a pond, are back a month early. 

I asked this crew what the heck was going on, but they weren't talking.

Stress Antidote

Good for what ails you. Just found a string of old Mary Tyler Moore reruns.

A new poem out for the New Year

Poetry reading tonight in Connecticut

If you're around and about Norwalk, Ct tonight (a great small coastal city I was fortunate enough to live in some twenty years ago), I will be reading with the poet, Sally Bliumis-Dunn at the Norwalk Public Library from 7:00-8:30 pm. Thanks to Norwalk's very own Poet Laureate, Laurel Peterson, for hosting a series of poets in conversation. Come and welcome the new year with poetry!

"You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me."

Breadcrumbs

A very cool idea - read a piece of writing or view art and be inspired to create something new. That's the magic of a literary magazine called Breadcrumbs which I'm pleased to have previously published a story in. And now? An artist in New Zealand was inspired by my story to create this great art work. Here's a snap from the Facebook page as well as Breadcrumbs online address and a link for the artist's Instagram. Check it out, maybe you'll find an inspiration, a breadcrumb all your own to follow and create something new.

A new poem is out

So pleased to have a new poem up at Woman Around Town. Links below. 

Enjoy!

Welcome Winter

Night lights

Just when I wished for someone to put lights up on our street

I turned up the road and saw the crescent moon pinned in the night sky

That New England light

Upstate

This bookstore in Oneonta is wonderful 

And my son said the coffee next door was great

Always end on a chicken lamp

The bluer sky

Sunday night.

Day of the Dead exhibit

Every year something spectacular offered when they unveil the Day of the Dead exhibit.

Comments

Once again, comments are not posting. It seems to be a blogger  issue, not a Google issue. Thank you for remarks, they are appreciated even though I can't post them.

Halloween draws to an end

Spending a morning with about twenty plus wee toddlers not a bad start to the holiday.  Library power!

A poem for the holiday that was published a few years ago by Danse Macabre.
