has advised me to add something to this blog.
"It's been awhile and your fans will think the
site has gone dark or that you've died."
He is right.
This is the month (and we all have one), where
we look at our life through the lens of one more
Birthday.
And so to all the loving, caring and generous
friends and family who remembered
my day with cards and texts and emails and flowers
and gifts of every sort, allow me to thank you here.
Fall-fill of color
One butterfly perched
See the curly willow branch
In a white bouquet
Rose and Lily link
Such purity of purpose
Peach-pink cheeks nestle
Above Baby's Breath
Only Love can love this way
Sunflowers gather
Mums in this autumn
Poetic conversation
Love and thank you hugs especially to:
Kathy L, Sandee & Fred, Teresa & Joel, Joe & Rosa
Rob & Brooke & Brandi, Gloria & Bob, Mo- & Gary,
Bob & Carey, Anita & Steve, Phil & Judy & Ashley,
Orman & Laurel, Dave F, Maurice O, Amanda & Abraham,
Nick, Alberta, Lynne & Eric, Jeanne & Don,
and Mother Judith--who shares my birth day.
