grandma found her man
a bit shy, he stayed a distance

darkest winter days
sunshine surrounds kitchen
icicles shimmering

spring time strikes the nose
Plop plop fizz fizz
that old pollen feeling
.
cloche
.
teepee hats for plants
protective ring around sprouts
sun ~ water do the work
.
spring cleaning
.
time to down size
forty-three years fills the house
autumn of my years

constellation
.
patient worried
constellation of tests
“virus” “call in morning”

current

tea on lawn by Pond *
tea and scones ~ popovers
today’s step back in time
