WHAT BRINGS TEARS ON A RAINY AFTERNOON

the love duet from La Boheme

that gold of day lilies

nodding in rain

a sky soft as white satin

the resplendence of snakes

their wet skin glistening

your call, unexpected

how we laughed

and remembered

how you said we go on

because there is nothing else to do

SUMMER DAWN

low growl

of distant thunder

crow

calling up dawn

in order to give birth

to a dancing star."

Somebody said to me "if you don't put something new on this blog, the NEXT full moon is gonna be here. Guess I better...
so here we have that age old bit of folklore that corn must be "knee high by the Fourth of July." We're right on target!

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!!!
