          SUMMER: 14 Rahmat (7 July)          

Think cool !

Weather where I am: 69º and pleasant this morning.
Weather in Las Vegas, NV: 81º just after dawn.
Weather in Florence, Italy: 73º.

I received an Awardicon from 👼intuey for her monthy contest: "Invalid Item"  for my prose-poem "'heart's home'" . She does this every month. Go there and submit your very best. She'd love to read it.

And did you know Cappucine is off to France? She'll be in Paris and Avignon (84º but could be 96º on Sunday during THE GAME). "Sur le pont d'Avignon, l'on y danse, l'on y danse ..."

Well, I'm drowning the corn! Yep. It's tassling but it's going to be hot this weekend and rain around here has been iffy. Picked a hornworm off a tomato. Most everything is looking REAL good. Of course, the soil is excellent.

This was a response to an entry by billw231838. It started in his blog and grew.
By-the-way, he writes a poetic blog. Go there and leave a poetic response!

Margins

Words hug
the margins
waiting for
permission

to cross to the other side.

This is your side of the street:
warm sunshine,
ice in the lemonade.

I cross back
to huddle
in my cave.
There is safety
where sun
never shines.

Hidden Valley:

Cracked sidewalk; cedar; cactus, shriveled cactus fruit; drooping yellow coneflower; brown rocks; juniper berries; grey stone; gate locked; bird chirp; ripe mulberries, mulberry juice.

Road over the creek:

Water strider; the ripples; the reflection of tree; where life survives ... there is water.
