Mira’s First Christmas
This is Mira…my granddaughter…this photo was taken on Christmas Day. Mira was dressed in her red flowered Christmas dress but it was so warm that she didn’t need a blouse under it or the cute tights that her Auntie Mahan had bought for her. She’s four months old now and I’m enjoying her company three days a week and loving every minute with her. It seems like every week she’s learning and accomplishing more skills. She’s trying out all kinds of sounds with her voice…sometimes turning them into “singing”. She’s a good girl, a delight…I’m so fortunate to be in her company.

Shells
Photo by: Lauren G. Google Images
shells of hue from
bold byzantium,
blushed pinks
to flaxen ginger
shells collected
throughout the years
seashore alive
with endless riches,
intimacy with
nature had
us transfixed
by the splendor
laughing gulls and tiny
blur-legged pipers with
low-swoop-diving pelicans,
and sightseeing dolphins
terns and crabs and
skeletons of fishes
on inexhaustible beaches
of diminutive coquina
laid crushed by the millions
starfish,
sand dollars,
sea urchins
and us
floating, bobbing
in the warm, waving gulf
my heart was sated
those days on Captiva
a distant, hazy dream
recalled…
of carefree days
exploring that island
now departed,
by a placid,
slow demise,
no longer I
entwined with you
hollow shells where once love grew

Perfect “S”
Kissing you upside down
lets me see you in a new
perspective. Your features
change into a funny face.
Even at our age, we manage
to have fun, act quirky
and goof around like
when we were kids.
We’ve been together
so long, like an almost-worn
out-but-not-quite pair
of comfortable shoes.
Here’s to
kissing upside down,
loving right side up
and holding each other close.
We make the perfect “S”!
