suggestion
Let me give you a suggestion: just don’t think about it! When it comes time to do the impossible, you know you have to do it, just do it! Don’t think about how hard it is going to be, or that you might not be able to do it; go ahead and do it.

montage
laughter. sadness. fear. fun. children. elderly. spring. summer. fall. winter. holidays. beaches. mountains. A montage of life’s moments, strung like drops across our memories, to cherish one at a time or flow into a sea of experience.

hostage
i am being held hostage by my own mind, by my own concept of myself as the unlovable. i have a chance right now to be with someone i so admire…but my doubts are so great that i don’t know that i can just be and love and love and love….

divide
i am thinking about u.s. politics how about so many politicians want to divide and conquer. think tea party, right wing christian leaders. they point to others and never to themselves, never see room for improvement. instead of divide, we need to multiply love/forgiveness/acceptance…

pleased
pleased i was to partake of this days writing camp, on line. what a different experience to write with a group instead of solo. it was fun to julie be the mediator, the mentor. she is after all, a smith graduate.

salute
what an appropriate word for the holiday at hand… independence day, when six gun salutes rule the nation. it is the time to remember our war participants. which we do, even if we rage against the war machine….

velvet
the hills looked like velvet, the sun reflecting off of the gentle curves and valleys of the land as it sloped down towards the river. i touched your cheek, and melted into your smile.

beach
my childhood was spent at the beach. corona del mar, lido island, huntington, shell beach, seal beach. they were so small and quaint, and not like now. i treasure those memories. and those friends.

bleach
the sky in this valley, the high desert, often takes on a bleached blue look. the meteorologists say it is a marine layer. marine layer? IN THE DESERT? HAH! i don’t like the sky-bleached-blue.

i picked up the bleach from the store shelf and placed it in my cart. i got to the checker later on and my hand was wet. i looked down at my favorite periwinkle blue pants, and they were streaked white from the leaky bleach container.

without
i am a writer without a story. i enjoy the tactile sense of paper, and everyone else’s stories… but i have none of my own. six words? yes?

leap
a leap of faith is what first comes to mind – that and the poster that sivita has in boise – which is beautiful and is actually a watercolor of a woman leaping over a chasm – a leap of faith, literally. wish i had the guts to take a leap of faith and quit the stupid ass job.

wash
there is a dry wash behind me. i call it a barranca. it is the conduit for all of the wildlife coming down from the paiutes. the evenings are awash in the wail of the coyotes. we have bobcats, bears, and mountain lions visit the neighborhood.

smiles
he was all smiles this morning… what excitement for a 5 year old to be on the field and receive an actual trophy for playing the game of t-ball. priceless… forever embedded into my memory.

wand
she flew through the air, wand in hand, sprinkling fairy dust across the crowd. the faces looked up, their faces shimmering and glittering like the stars they were.

wrapped
so wrapped up in the day to day grind, i sometimes forget to breathe, forget to unwind. then i visit isaiah, and get lost in those big, brown eyes, the unconditional love he has for me, his grandmother. the queen mum…

collar
i wore the collar proudly, it was a special gift to me from my dog. it was red, with shiny glass all around it. woof! i wanted to stick my head out the nearest car window and let my tongue roll out of my mouth…. or eat a dog biscuit…. or chase a cat…. or a car….
