An Okinawan Artist

I adore this portrait. I’ve loved it for years. Hanging ever so quietly in a cove near the desk, there she’d contentedly smile when I’d walk past, when I’d get ready, when I’d hurry by and glance, when I’d once in awhile pause, when I’d get all mushy-mushy then carry on with my busy biz …

With windows wide open, they greet me every early morning. Birds singing, crickets chirping, lightning bugs glowing, train whistle whistling … but this a.m. brings silence. Just Venus, a few random stars and me, sitting in complete shhhh. How weird, I whisper, how bashfully strange. Where’s the changing of the guard ? the nighttime serenade-rs’ …

I watch with sadness as the daily tally climbs. 130, 140, 150,000+ One. Hundred. Fifty. Thousand. Human. Beings in these United States of America who’ve left this life because of Covid-19 150,000 with family and friends whose world is now rocked, whose journey will never, ever be the same & now, this beast has crept …

Bad Girl Chair

Bad Girl Chair

Walking down memory lane and repeating with a smile. Enjoy. ♥ I hung out at an airport, recently. Arrived earlier than expected, had time to spare, so I did one of my favorite things to do, I people watched. YaY. Little kids are the best. Their giggles are priceless, their meltdowns, entertaining & child to …
