I am happy tonight,
United with my friends,
Free from the Pain of separation,
I whirl & dance with the Beloved
I Tell my heart,
“Do, not wory,
The key to morning
I have thrown away.”
- Rumi
Lovers drink
wine all day &
night & tear
the veils of the
mind - when
drunk with
loves wine
body, heart
& soul become
one - RUMI

This first drawing is an old girlfriends bedroom from the early 80's.
The portrait was one she drew of Simon Le Bon, famously of Duran Duran. I also always loved the aspirational San Francisco poster. It kind of makes me feel bad we didn't stay in the Bay Area when we moved out there a few years back. And there is debate even today over who's bike that really was, my wife's or her sisters.

umble & Hum -
Rumble rumble
Rumble rumble
Hum and purr
Where I am from matters little.
Matters not.
Where am I going?
Where will I stop?
Rumble rumble
Hum and purr
It’s the journey.
Destination’s just a thing.
But sometimes,
The getting there makes mind leap,
heart sing.
The two are one,
Journey and destination
All part of the fun.
Rumble rumble
Hum and purr
Stretched out before me:
Each rising and
Each setting sun
The grey river
never stops.
Just keeps going
on and on.
Hill and dale
marker 201
Bridge and bend
Endless to the sea.
Rumble rumble
Hum and purr
Reaching journey’s end
Hugs and kisses,
Beer and laughter,
Glorious music,
All through the nights, with my friends
Rumble rumble
Hum and purr
Home is where
Love is.
How can I ever leave?
Rumble rumble
My heart is there.
Rumble rumble
With my friends,
My family,
My love.
Rumble rumble
Hum and purr.
I cannot wait to go back again.

Sunrise Love - 11/21/21
The tea smells of caramel apple
Warm and sweet
Feet are gritty with sand
Ocean growls at the shoreline
Wind is still this morning
In the distant, the cry of a gull
Dunes stretch out endlessly
Bisecting the green earth
And the living ocean
This moment feels timeless
1000 years ago as today
Except for you
Brown eyes
Rich giggles
Chaotic intellect
that laughs at logic
Seeing all of the beauty in the world
Never has there been
Never will there be
A woman like you
One spark in the vastness
The scenery changes
Day by Day
As does our love
Deeper, and more profound
The wind is kicking up now
Gull has drifted away
A drizzle starts
Let’s go make eggs
Your charm lured me
To the edge of madness.
Lost my composure.
Humbled, I was sent away.
Then you touched my heart,
Transformed & shaped me
Into any form you fancied.
