With “Imagine” playing loud
And the stars and...

The euphoria that it gives calms the nerves.

...Playing in sunshine
is a twirling girl and cat
Meows and laughter
Romping away sweet moments
until the day is drowsing
In tall green grasses

in shadows of day

In it dwells two inhabitants
Ounces of flesh in feathered coats

The vastness of the sky being denied
Do they li...

Thinking of strong Wild West women.
Our little girl, Gigi, ran to my bedside, barking
Excitedly, “A present? Aaarrr-ooo! ...

I wake up, hearing chirps of birds at four O’ clock;

The earth and the heavens celebrate sprin...
