The backyard apricot tree has a
few blossoms sprouting from the reddish limbs. The grass continues to grow in
the rain. The inedible quince is coming.
Frost on the neighbors’ roofs, the
yellow oxalis flowers pop out in the early morning light. Ice on my windshield
as I drive to McGowan house for early meditation.
In the warm afternoon sun my solar
powered light is recharging. A pillar of
gnats rise from the wet grass. Small birds hop in the wet garden.
I am preparing for the next
outage. My son set up wood in the
fireplace that I can just light with a match.
I saw two cars today
with some part of the car body held
together with duck tape. I will start carrying duck tape in my car.
Even with the bright moon light
on my deck tonight I can see stars sparkling in the cold sky.
