A Day in the Life, 10 years

2018 Snowballs! A cloud on the lake Rising in white misty wisps Through slender dark firs 2016 As I grind coffee, I think of world commerce. Am Glad to do my part. From the driver's seat: No ice scraping, no blizzard. Northeast, be jealous! 2015 Nutella with toast? What about with some lefse? Tough morning choices. 2014 2013 First the sun, and then The moon, light up the clouds and Tangle with the trees. It rains all day, but Yet another quilted sky Takes my breath away. A sweet-faced lab mix, Abandoned? Rescued by staff. I miss my Carbon. 2011 Watching the sun stream Through the waiting room windows; Playing solitaire 2010 The yellow primrose  Pokes out through the brown dead leaves,  But I still want snow. Walking and humming  "Oh tie a yellow ribbon...."  Curses, you earworm!!

2019 Awake before dawn, But consoled by the sight of Awesome alignments Jupiter aligns with.....Venus The lineup: Jupiter, Venus, and Antares. 2018 First breakfast sunrise, Just me, clouds, cats, and coffee. Will the snows return? 2017 The advantage to Walking home through frozen dark: Glittering star dome. Clunky ice sculptures, The water in stop motion Capturing the chains. 2015 I find most shadows Represent a synthesis Of light and being. 2014 Got out earlier And further up the mountain. Just more trees and rocks. Soft spiral billows It's not a tornado cloud I ponder the source 2013 Bus stop haiku.... "Hey babe how are ya? Can you take me with you? We Could do something nice" Some things never change. 2012 I see a white patch Through the window, and whiskers.... Simone's watching me. 2010 The skyscraper's lights,  Halos behind stark branches:  An O'Keeffe painting.

2018 Fire and ice! 2015 Haiku to DIY innovation: Today I processed Hazelnuts and chocolate. It's rather gluppy. . It's tasty of course, But I think next time I should Follow instructions. Dancing to Dire Straits While cleaning up bacon grease: The joy of small things. 2014 Finches fill the tree And join the feeding juncos. Can you spot them all? The ground was sparkly And the stars so resplendent: Wintry wonderland. 2013 Snuggled in the quilts, Drinking coffee and reading: Reveling in it. 2010 Just finished eating a fabu pizza: salami, olives, home-made pesto sauce, bacon, artichoke hearts, home-made pizza dough. Damn, I'm good.

2018 From the bus, en route from Gardermoen to Gjoevik So much white stuff here: I feel like I’ve never seen Snow before today. 2017 Last night was dancing, Tonight listening to jazz: At home vacation. Woman Stands Shining Talks of retelling stories: It's not so easy. 2016 Out the back door and Into a still, bright gloaming. At last, the weekend. I drive to road's end; The Pedernal's rise and fall Pulls from the distance. 2014 Afternoon walk 2014 "Have a wild night," said The online ref customer. The girl's still got it. All is still except The skies and the flitting wings. My bare feet are cold. 2011 Conflict of desires: I want to go snoozy-bop But the sun's shining. 2010 From yesterday's ride:  He slowly reads from  The board book. A small hand points:  "....He was still hungry...." Ran into Cherie  And talked about orchestra:  A bus ride pleasure!
