space is the breath of art. – frank lloyd wright
local skater boy
drives around
with his polar bear way up top
just like the north pole
i see him all over town
and
it makes everyone
who crosses paths with him
smile and turn or cheer or shake their heads
no one fails to react in some way
good or bad
isn’t that what the best art is meant to do?

whole lotta’ love.
and with the return of the aussies
my band of grandies are back together
all on one continent
in one time and one place
sharing some mischief and one tiny space.
—
Jake: We’re putting the band back together.
Mr. Fabulous: Forget it. No way.
Elwood: We’re on a mission from God.

last summer’s tiny space
the first time
they were ever all together
meeting in one big box.

if you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need. – marcus tullius cicero
late morning
on the tiny deck
behind my tiny cottage
surrounded by a tiny garden
sharing this tiny space
with a
delicate spider
perched upon
champagne dreams roses
petals flying
orange cat
stretched out
on
weathered deck
under a cloudy sky
sipping
warm coffee
with
coconut cream
reading
listening
taking it all in
happy to share this space
all of us knowing
life is good.

exclusiveness in a garden is a mistake as great as it is in society.

my crown is called content, a crown that seldom kings enjoy. – william shakespeare
and so it began
another summer
had arrived
and
it was kicked off
in a larger than life way
with
martha reeves and the vandellas
giving a free concert
outisde on the street
and
it brought people of all kinds together
to
dance in the streets
and
sing
and
remember
and
celebrate
the season
and later
i had the chance to see
my co-worker from school
in a very different role
acting in a
powerful production
of one of my favorites
‘rent’
held in a beautiful old theater
with voices booming and tears flowing
and i couldn’t have asked for a better way
to be welcomed into summer
but with music and passion.

happiness is not an ideal of reason, but of imagination. – immanuel kant
and i am very happy today
as i imagine
this is what it looks like outside.
and then i will go outside.
and i will keep imagining.
and in a few months
it will look like this
and then i will
praise the power
of the imagination
for making things come true.
I didn't have my glasses on....
