Conversation with a green sweater

If Scarlett can write about erotic vegetables, then certainly I can! Not!!! Well, I did write a couple GC poems I won't post in this blog and a couple based on scripture scramble (I'm using 3x5 cards and that's working well). Scarlett goes from the exotic to erotic; while, I go from inspiration to the profane.

Conversation with a green cardigan

And did you forget
"John not Janine"
to pick up this zippered sweater
knitted olive green
The note reads:
"from Nathan not Niles"
I touch its softness,
take a photograph
then smile.

This is the art and artifice
found at the back of a sodashop.
The moment of the gift
and giver lift
the veil from memories
not of Janine nor John,
not even Niles
but Nathan
... ah ...

of Nathan.

I have the photo. There was an olive green sweater with a note on it at the back of Butterfly Herbs ... therefore ...

blah...

I have no energy. The weather has been windy, chill and draining. I'm reading Sue Grafton's chiller T is for Trespass and just bought poetry by Chris Dombrowski as he has a reading/signing next Wednesday.

I ate at Sushi Hana where they noticed I was m.i.a. last week. Liked the black cod.

MILLSTONES and MILESTONES:

Yes, there is a difference in a blue month and a black-and-blue month! March blog stats: 808 views (down from over 1,000); 82 WDC viewers (down slightly from around 90); 146 off-site views (way down; less than half; I was averaging over 300); Odd days I didn't blog = 19views/day (range of 11-29); Even days I did blog = 39views/day (range of 20-62). Just so every one knows that blogging every day does affect the numbers.

I will continue to attempt blogging on even days in April. Every other day is less stressful and I'm hoping to improve the quality of my entries by doing fewer.
