Deck destroyed
Sidewalk shattered
Strings stretched
Holes hewn
Concrete cured
Help... Imposed
Gratefully accepted.
Drinks drank
Pizza, Pies
Wonderful weekend!

"Mimi your flowers!"
They were transplanted...
"Mimi your deck!!!"
We're demolishing it to replace it...
"MIMI!!! YOUR HOUSE IS BROKEN!!!"
The siding is pulled back to work in the deck.

So many words.
So little said.

Busy day
Running late
Schedule packed
Self imposed


Guiltily paused...
Multiple colors
Clouds, blocking
Brilliant sunrise


One instant
Singular, Unique,
Nearly lost
Countless are

Solving The World's Problems
Evening
Porch
Words:
Decompression,
Discussion,
Debate...
Heated?
Warmth.
Empathy,
Growth,
Connections...
Family
Memories.

"Head, shoulders, knees, and toes."
Into a fake microphone... about 200 times... From a mobile stage shaped like a shopping cart... at Wal-Mart.

Mist rolls off the pond
Single column rising up
Flattened from above

I want to go home...
I want my time back.
I had a wonderful day yesterday...
I had a day off.
I spent all day making memories...
I spent all day with those I love.
I need more of that.

Two words,
calmly said.
"I wouldn't."
Line drawn
in stone.
the coward
halted instantly.
Grateful then...
Moreso now.
Manly example.
Not violent,
but willing,
when principle requires.

Retirement Fishing
our pond
tiny ripples
we drift
oblivious, into
the wire,
the pointless...
barbed wire.
shirt shredded,
tiny trickle
draws attention.
how frail
Dad's hands
have become.

Pervasive stillness
Periwinkle sky, ringed with
Pink and purple clouds

The two year old, "I'm a possum! Chomp! Chomp!"

Pervasive stillness
kaleidoscopic nature
Rudely interrupted

Today a little box of Phillips bits served as "canday" and a "room" full of little creatures.
