I Love....
When I get everything I want planted
when my kittens pounce on each other
when the breeze blows on warm days
when just the right song comes on the radio at just the right time
when my paycheck comes in
when I get to spend it on something cool
when Mico plays banjo
when I get to eat a home grown veg straight off the plant
when my dog sits on my feet
when I can say, "I told you so..."
when I work really hard on something and someone notices
when I get a really awsome hair wash at the salon
when I feel close to whatever god is out there
when my friends trust me with something important
when one of my plants blooms for the first time
when I figure something complicated out
when I come up with a good metaphor to describe something
when I have a good nights sleep
when I get new shoes
when I hear new music that I really like
when I get all gussied up to go somewhere fancy
when I put on my most comfortable clothes to stay home
when a household project is completed
and
when I get alot of comments on my journal

I miss you.
Hows your garden?
'Things that count' (trg,3/17/96)
a glass of good wine,
fresh bread,
aged cheese
and some fruit;
all but the wine,
though fine for the others,
makes for good company.
A fresh cup of coffee,
strong, maybe French-pressed,
are almost all one needs.
Oh yes. An honest friend creates a banquet.
'I've noticed...' (trg, 3/01/03)
I've noticed that I
fall in love with my friends.
Their smells, well - not always,
their laughter -- yes,
the sound of their voice,
their playfulness
about anything or nothing
-- all make me anticipate more.
Have you ever shook hands
with someone only to experience
time and space stand still?
Have you ever shook hands
for the first time
with Beauty, finding
you know her,
though you only
met her today?
I and she kiss,
say, ' Hello --
this is familiar,'
I think to myself.
I pause, take a long, deep breath
and do not explain it.
I do give a f' about this.
What's this? -- The small of her back?
