After the WeddingI'm in a new place, / A silent inner stop. / Alone. Deep and still.

A Gaggle of GeeseA murder of crows, an ostentation of peacocks, / a parliament of owls, a knot of frogs, / a skulk of foxes, a siege of herons,

BIG SURMaking love in the afternoon sun by a creek / Smelling roses in the dark, walking a quiet dark road together / Hiking over the eucalyptus hill to rip off our clothes and ease into the hot tub, the sea raging below us

CaringI speak for the sun, distant as it is. No matter. I tell it’s story every day the sun shows itself. / I speak for history and for the current. For the passage of humans. No matter. I tell their story whether good or bad, alive or dead. / I speak for the lost and not found. No matter. I see them in my dreams and my nightmares. I feel their hearts beating.

COLORSIn the ‘50’s we all lived in black and white, marching in step with each other, our lawns making us ashamed we weren’t more perfectly matched. / We didn’t know it but we were waiting for the 60’s, that time of candied heart love and daffodil embroidered clothes. / We got more refined, less cluttered in the 70’s but kept a mellowed down pink turned taupe, having grown too cool for pastels.

dorothy l. sayersI¹m not sure how I came to be obsessed with Dorothy L. Sayers and her / beloved Peter Wimsey. At any rate, I was determined to go on a pilgrimage / to England and walk in the places where she walked and to see the place
