accept yourself

on your own
two feet."
Shunnyu Suzuki

Stars

"Stars
are the streetlights
of eternity."

It's Friday!

Lots of snow
headed our way,
get tucked in,
and bake a cake,
'cuz today...
is this kid's Birthday!
She's Elly.
A beach girl.
Mother extraordinaire.
She loves olives.
Extra olives in her
Bloody Mary.
And plain cheescake.
No cherries and no lemon.
She digs clams. Grilled.
And her four punks.
And her Pup.
She's a Mom taking good care
of her Mom.
She's had to be
kinda strong.
And she was. And she is.
She doesn't stand still
for very long.
So a quick Happy Birthday, El.
Love and hugs.
Peace and happiness.
Clams and cheescake your way!! xo

Tweethaikusignation

"Financial crisis
stalled too many customers
CEO no more"

Jonathan Schwartz, the CEO of
Sun Microsystems announced
his resignation today on
Twitter!

Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry
that expresses a single feeling
or emotion and contains
3 unrhymed lines of 5,7,& 5
syllables respectively,
often on the subject of nature
or the seasons.

In this case
the season of resignation.
His severance.... a cool 12 million.

Tangled...

Imagine

The color
of Springtime
is in
the flowers,
the color
of Winter
is in
the imagination.

Ward Elliot Hour

Come In, February

Winter teaches us
about detachment,
numbness.
But it's a way
to get through.
From winter we learn
silence
and acceptance
and
the stillness thickens.
