Sometimes
you need to tilt your head back
and breathe in
clean air
and see
blue sky
and touch
clear water.
I'm in Maine
beaming
all of this
to
all of you.

Life and writing, serious and humorous, old and young, past and present: it's all part of the fabric.
“Maybe we’re here only to say: house, bridge, well, gate, jug, olive-tree, window--at most, pillar, tower--but to say them, remember, oh! to say them in a way that the things themselves never dreamed of so intensely.” --Rilke
