Pretty!

Roses & monkey grass greet the morning sun...

Still playing photographer but the manual is in Greek so there is still so much I don't understand. Perhaps the light of understanding will visit my brain as the morning sun illuminating these posies... It could happen!

Coffeehouse

My friend Kathy Wilson took these candid shots at Friday's UUCS Expresso Yourself Coffeehouse.

Wish I could remember what Barbara was whispering... Keith obviously found it amusing too.

Mary Bracey and Teresa Hall need to take their act on the road. They did Dr. Hook's Cover of Rolling Stone with an especially interesting "drum solo."

Ron Fowler's "cool hand Luke" style is always entertaining. Speaking of "cool hand Luke," Nigel was among several middle school students in the audience, which spanned several generations. A fun evening!

Summer's finale...

Knockout roses, monkey grass, and geraniums grace the late summer days as a hint of autumn chill slips into the nights. Ahhhhhh.

butterflies

So many sappy poems written about butterflies that I cannot bring myself to attempt one, although I see their pursuit of the nectar as my own quest for spiritual sustenance...

Universe, may I feel light as a butterfly today and allow the currents of life to move me where I am suppose to go, preferably not smashed on the grill of a car! Amen.

Nature shots

Nature shots. Love my trees!

Poetry at the UU

My verse was well received at the UU church this morning. My presentation was packed. Actually, I have not counted precisely how many works I included but there were more than enough, perhaps too many to squeeze into a 30 minute session. Anyway, I got a lot of positive feedback and a lot of questions about why I'm not published. I have anguished over that question too many times and am to the point that if the Universe intends for me to publish, a way will present itself. I have never had much patience for nor perseverance with the business end of the writing business. Anyone know a good literary agent?
