Dusty Springfield
cool, foggy mornings
turkey vultures in the field
fairies blowing bubbles at the fair
the sun dancing on green leaves
glass marbles in a dish
pink dahlias
french vanilla coffee
and chocolate croissants

Random Thoughts

i think about the complexity of life
after a difficult conversation
and the simplicity of life after watching a goldfinch;
but then, i spot two mourning doves mating in the grass,
and watch them become startled by a dog
barking at a darting dragon fly–
simplicity melts into cause and effect, the chain reaction tripping a switch in my head that makes me look up at the day opening before me and quietly walk away

Conversations Lately

“Everyone clapped and cheered, and it almost made me cry.”

“What would you buy if you were me today–what’s really good?”

“Yesterday a big snapping turtle came out of the water and scared him so much, he spread those huge white wings and flew away.”

“They had tin foil on their heads.”
