I Like Cake

I have been very image-oriented lately...I think I have just gone brain dead...images are much easier to produce than good prose...and isn't a picture worth a thousand words, anyway?

The Pose

(The Red sweater pic is me in front of PoCo city hall imitating the the mayor there.)http://www.canada.com/theprovince/news/story.html?id=586a94e3-3f0f-4efb-983c-5246a9adbf61&k=16370

I gotta get more original with my poses...But I had a good mini-vacation...!!

The Lunch Date

Winter

I already miss Winter.

Hah!

My life is an open book-with indecipherable text.

Poetry to read on a night full of moon:

Arctic Rhododendrons
By Al Purdy

They are small purple surprises
in the river's white racket
and after you've seen them
a number of times
in water-places
where their silence seems
related to river-thunder
you think of them as 'noisy flowers'
Years ago
it may have been
that lovers came this way
stopped in the outdoor hotel
to watch the water floorshow
and lying prone together
where the purge green
boils to a white heart
and the shore trembles
like a stone song
with bodies touching
flowers were their conversation
and love the sound of a colour
that lasts two weeks in August
and then dies
except for the three or four
I pressed in a letter
and sent whispering to you
