Rosehips

I went to my Fiction Plus writers' meeting last night at Nancy and Parris' place near Alberton. I got to sit with 'Queen' Elizabeth, their 16 almost 17 year old cat. She was mellow until Pedro the chihuahua wanted to say hello. She had a royal snit and Frances' poor 6 month old puppy was totally bewildered .

I brought 5 poems and had them read them back to me. They-all really liked "Joseph's Coat" , so I made it it's own r/r item.

Trash.1 is also now on r/r "Trash.1 (after the melt)"  and is available to anyone who wants a copy. Just send me an address in a private email. Don't assume I have it even if you already gave it to me. I swear my brain cells are scattered across the firmament.

Had meatloaf today. Bought a plastic mini-pot for 5 cents and a ceramic toucan for 10 cents. Myrt gave me a brolly. Picked flowers: bachelor buttons, daisies and buttercups and put them in a bottle with blue dyed water. Then the toucan and the flowers went on the window-shelves on either side of my room's door. They joined postcards from Mandy, Trash.1, Sushi.2, Sushi.5 and Sushi.6 and other items. I'm decorating!

I will be gone from July 1st til 15th so I need to ask someone to water the geraniums. I'd prefer to stay here. Early July in Montana is wonderful; but, I have things I need to do... elsewhere.

Rosehips

Rose came home drunk from your urns of wine.
Danced through her kitchen tangled in your vines.
Strangled the impulse to share what's mine:
her thorns, her buds, her hips divine.
