Greetings Bloggers and Bloggettes - I will be offline a day or so. Up to other end of country to do family stuff.
See you soon
” —arrival
excitement - fumbled lines crush hugs joy
… tears
perhaps
brunch cafe, old & new bookshops, galleries
… smiles
drive
hike - forest stream, a wild rock, soaring sky
… laughs
walks
by the river or a stony shore - sunset/moonrise
… glances
night
meal, wine, concert/movie (w. critical review!)
… blurry goodnights
departure
rushed gift buy - fumbled lines crushing hugs
… brave smiles
… flight numb
… tears
” —warren k. - homecoming“É mellor estar calado e parecer tonto, que falar e despexa-las dúbidas definitivamente.”
Google Galician - English translation:
“It is better to remain silent and appear foolish, to say the dump and questions definitively.”
“say the dump”?
” —Groucho Marxi wanted to cry….
the blessed release of a primal scream
i wanted a wild hearty laugh
anything to tell me i lived
for twenty plus years
i waited
then it unraveled, it dissembled on me
a life i thought was noble if not happy
lied straight to my face
“your time will come”
and i suppose it did
but you have to watch the clock face and be ready to catch the cuckoo
or the second hand will move on
too quickly, too quickly
