collecting memories–
those tiny moments, each so distinct and uniquely faceted, made all the more lovely with the passing of time

Lately (again)
Lately
falling rain on mushrooms
black tea in the afternoon
tiny deer on tiny plates
yellow and red leaves on grass
cornbread in the oven
frost on the roof
On the Counter
glass jars filled with baby’s breath
a blue wire basket
yesterday’s mail
a golden mirror
coffee cup with warm coffee
car keys
a small plant
reading glasses
this book: State of Wonder by Ann Patchett
lemon verbena, sea salt and coconut candles
a little wooden house
and a small drawstring linen pouch
Recently
strawberry and mango popsicles
blue herons in the early morning and small hawks in the afternoon
this book: A Three Dog Life, by Abigail Thomas
cedar waxwings in the berry bushes
this song: Take Me in your Arms by the Doobie Brothers
the juice of swiss chard, cucumber, mint and apples
fairy lights in mason jars at night
Things I have always desired
a ship in a bottle
a small cabin hidden in a forest
a garden maze
a swing in the living room
a friend that is also a crow
a crystal ball
a bridge to another time
a ride on a paper airplane
a conversation with shadows
a working fireplace
a happy ending
A Lifetime

at the front of a long, lithe line,
eventually sinking to the bottom of an old glass jar,
before rolling into the far left corner of a jumbled junk drawer
