1985. seeing red


ready to unfurl
buds of red leaves curled up tight
red, white, on blue

 


Wow. If I had a nickel for every red bud on that mighty red maple, I’d be rich as a quadrillionaire!😘




1984. read


in the bookshop
feeling right at home
reading books

 



A good book can make you feel right at home. A book is like a garden that blossoms and blooms. Books are like friends. Books are good things to have. “If you only read the books, everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.” Haruki Murakami




1983. the quiet


just sitting
waiting for the sun to rise
two buddhas

 



Early morning is a favorite time of day. Just sitting, listening to the quiet.
