I had a dream about you the other night. Nothing obscene. Nothing to cause a fright. ~ In my dream, I got to see you play. At a local festival. It was day. ~ You had no idea I was around. Singing and playing, happiness you had found. ~ A little lady about 85, pattedContinue reading “A song”

Eat or breathe
Cleaning the yard can be quite hard. ~ A lovely day no where close to May. ~ Down tree limbs a brush pile laden to the brim. ~ Saw’em up and burn’em in a pit; clean that yard. Have a pop and sit. ~ Enjoy being outside. Watch the sun; across the sky, ride. ~Continue reading “Eat or breathe”
