Love

"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."

~ Dr. Seuss

Why is grief not a slope that diminishes into nothing? Why is it a wave? Why does it come and go? Like an ocean wave. Barely nudging you sometimes. But other times knocking you off your feet. This was the last time we were together and so happy. I was not ready to lose you.  I know you were not ready to go.  We had made plans to grow old together.  There were so many things we had planned for the near future and the far future.  And now what?

walk at the beach

As I went for an early morning walk to bid adieu to the ocean I felt like three days was not enough. The vastness of the ocean made me forget everything. The voices in my head calculating and recalculating deadlines and the project plans, they were all muffled by the constant roar of the waves.

My herb garden

When the world wearies and society fails to satisfy, there is always the garden. — Minnie Aumonier This half barrel planter has been my herb garden for the past four summers. A mismatch of a few odd, not so perfect things, just like me. An unruly lavender plant that somehow survived last winter in its tiny pot. A reincarnated mint, occupying a slightly different spot in the barrel this time around. A solar light that I stole from the front yard that soaks up the sun all day long and casts gleeful patterns on the tender herb leaves after sundown. A purple solar powered globe with a glass mosaic that used to light up when it was younger. Now it just reflects the light that shines on it — probably should be discarded, but I am not done with it yet. I have trouble letting go of old friends. It is a good idea to be alone in a garden at dawn or dark so that all its shy presences may haunt you and possess you in a reverie of suspended thought. ~ James Douglas ...
