full tonight.
under the harvest moon
when the soft silver
drips shimmering
over the garden nights,
death, the gray mocker
comes and whispers to you
as a beautiful friend
who remembers.

hopeful.
to say that the detroit lions
have not played like a top tier team in a long time
is an understatement.
I found this display
in the middle of a big box hardware store
with no explanation
and loved the artistic statement it made.
this still somewhat hopeful
and ever loyal fan
has been waiting quite a long time for a win.
that is strong and that is funny.

Magnus, Felix, Brooklyn, Valentina, Jackson, and Raffaella
a shoutout to all of my highly-spirited grandies

from a few years back
of all sitting still in one place at one time
happy grandparents day to all
with much love from peaches
thanks for reminding me what’s important each and every day.
