Saturday Good Reads



The Occupy movement comes to Bethany, sort of. A wedding ring gets lost. A disease is diagnosed, poetically. A poet finds poetic justice, in a cartoon. A son takes Winnie-the-Pooh on a journey for his ailing mother. And more. Good stuff. All good stuff.

    Just watched the video about the "Keep Calm and Carry On" posters. That absolutely made my day. It is so thoroughly British!

    See!!! I have to comment before I read and view your list because... I get lost in wonder if I start reading and seeing first!

    All good. All good. (on my pilgrim's retreat, doors are one of the metaphors we work with-- love Lambert's doors.)

    Thanks for the mention.

    spring
    arrives
    one sign at a time
    softly moving
    winter's cover
    underground

    Thank you for mentioning my poem. Walt sent me a lovely note about it. I had to write it to get over the shock I always experience when I learn that another friend has cancer.
