Perennial


I’m just a mean green mother from outer space
And it looks like you been had
I’m just a mean green mother from outer space,
So get off my back ‘n get out my face,

Cause I’m mean and green and I am bad!

Gesture

Due to Mary’s unusual gestures, it was quite obvious that …something  was afloat!   ;)

An oldy… but a goody! Hey now… I’m talking about the illustration!!

Stay



For every Bird a Nest --
Wherefore in timid quest
Some little Wren goes seeking round --

Wherefore when boughs are free --
Households in every tree --
Pilgrim be found?

Perhaps a home too high --
Ah Aristocracy!
The little Wren desires --

Perhaps of twig so fine --
Of twine e'en superfine,
Her pride aspires --

The Lark is not ashamed
To build upon the ground
Her modest house --

Yet who of all the throng
Dancing around the sun
Does so rejoice?

-Emily Dickinson

Shadows

“Hildilid dragged her heavy cauldron to the fire so she could boil away the night.  She ladled it, stirred it, simmered it, bubbled it, and burned it, but she could not boil away the night.”
