Love's Glorious Origin
Spring, season of passion
LOVE wields a net
dredging the sandy
sea bottom
tangling hearts in
salty knots 🪢
until we toss ourselves
into the surf
surrendered to her
playful mirth
Venus, the Spring-born Goddess
⋆☀︎.𓆉 ⋆.˚𓇼 ⋆.˚𓆟
A miracle of love’s portents
the sea, it’s over
yet, connection is\fl
generated in
serendipity’s meeting\ow
guided back to the glossy \ing
topside
born in the breaking of the
surface tension 💦
⋆☀︎.𓆉 ⋆.˚𓇼 ⋆.˚𓆟
Tethered
running this nautical mile
with the
vigor and freedom of
undomesticated equine
caught on the sails of
unbridled joy
lifting us up so we can fly🪽

Today is my wedding anniversary. It's been 13 years since my husband and I popped into the Roy's Redwoods Open Space Preserve to get married. We had what the kids nowadays might call a pop-up wedding. We walked into the park with my bouquet, a small speaker for the music, and a couple of cameras; no chairs or any other items that might damage the area. There were 11 people there in total, including the photographer. We were in and out in half an hour, then went to the Tiberon Tavern in Tiberon CA, for dinner with everyone.

CH5~ What Weekends are For
Sixthday, the sixth started gloriously, sleeping in, getting ready at her leisure, and busting in on Abbie instead of the other way around. After a long, relaxed morning and a real breakfast, not just a coffee and a pastry, everyone attending Viv’s party started getting ready. Everyone except Harriet from their little block of apartments was invited. She had never actually met Viv. The party wasn’t for hours, but getting ready was half of the fun. Frannie and Abbie opened their doors, and the girls all brought their dresses and makeup and went between the two for the most part.

The Cave Part 11
Darkness, and the countless points of light, as if the entire void beyond was filled with the fire of a million stars. I felt as if I was staring into the eternity of a night sky beyond those wooden doors, the place beyond the actual reality, while I stood behind a curtain of scenery, the mountain and sky a mere pretense. And in that void beyond of unfathomable space, there hung suspended a mighty shard of crystal floating in place, with hundreds of a far smaller chunks orbiting around it in balanced but intersecting circles, no two in the same path. These caught the light from the center, and sparkled with inner fire each.
