Mon Feb 16, 2015 tanka prompt: what is your home made of
.
(I wore my home “on my sleeve” today, it was made of kimonos.
.
My friendCindy Rinne
made this beautiful pin and gave it to me,
when she finished her solo art show
in our Living Room Gallery a few years ago.
.
She especially loves kimono fabric,
and she is an experimental and unusual
artist and poet !
(She loved having some
of our brilliant friend Alexis Rotella’s
collage papers too.
I wore her house for her visit…
who else can say my house is made of kimonos?
.
It is a small mystery
as if a garden has moved indoors.
What is your home built of?
Bricks?
Does it have a grass roof?
A sterling silver door?
A golden entryway.
Is it made of words?
.
What is the signpost,
the marker, the numbers that signify?
Do you embed mirrors and stones in your hearth?
What is your home built of,
can you “wear it on your sleeve”?
Or put it in your tanka?)

Glad to see your post I can’t remember the last one. Winter weather, health or trip? We are down in Mazatlán. Have been since beginning of Jan. Nice weather here. Hope you are north or at least some of the heavy snowfall.
Are you coming to the reunion? It’s our 50th anniversary that day so I won’t be there. Hopefully you’ll come early or stay later and we can get together?

Ginny…it has been a while..first my laptop was in for a major repair.. and lots of other people having the same problem … I think when we had the ice storm things got messed up for a lot of people. Mine was for a major physical, but had to be in line with the others.
And the weather, mostly dark and cold inside and out..we had record breaking snow and cold. Also, because of the snow and cold, had company during some of the weather with friends that live out in the boonies wanting to stay in town.
We have not had the total the brunt of the weather…but most of it… occasionally we missed, but way too much. It actually isn’t the snow but the extreme cold…the cat and I staying warm under an electric lap robe and then to bed with a huge rice back… 12″ square !
Thanks for writing… and I know you enjoy Mazatlan…
Unless things change, I won’t be to the reunion due to finances. WoW… your 50th anniversary … congratulations. Will be posting more now…
