Doesn't everyone sled down the deck stairs? With the baby?

Doesn’t everyone sled down the deck stairs?
With the baby?

While adults snowboard,
tots avalanche activate;
bust “Angelo style!”

Barbara Schuldner’s Grief

Barbara
Barbara&Diane11-05

Barbara’s son Ed
found his glory two weeks past.
Flies his spirit soul!

Left before fifty.
Chose simplicity and trust.
Flies his spirit soul.

Grief for mother deep.
Dark depths rise slowly up;
find sun to dazzle.

Oxidizes to
new growth: lily pads, sea weed…
flying spirit soul.

“Betty Boop”, channel
of Grace, not source of power;
Umbilical cord!

Children Without TV #10 Mudras

Oliver is three years old- Feb.9, 2014

Oliver is three years old-
Feb.9, 2014

Fam’ly assembled:
Eight strong! Owner of diner
takes charge: center stage.

Oliver sidles
close; tells of measuring tape
that springs in and out.

I showed him zippers.
His sister stole the show so
He makes fingers arrows

rotating round; they
cycled, speeding, straight to my
heart! love finding home!

Children Without TV #9 Empathy

Birthday Candles' Light

Birthday Candles’ Light

Went to my son’s house
for Birthday cake ‘n candles;
Got diarrhea.

Dog knew; tried to help
clean me up; grand kids puzzled.
Washed, girded myself

for frigid drive home.
My son smiled: “That’s life, Nana.”
(solicitous gaze)

Each cared for me; showed
support, compassion’s gentle
lift: patience’s child.

Children Without TV #8 (That’s Entertainment!)

Picked from the Eyeglass Collection

Picked from the Eyeglass Collection

Change the scale; viewpoint!
That’s entertainment: script, song,
laughter, showmanship!

Today I was transfixed reading David Wiesner’s Caldecott winner book: Mr Wuffles!
The point of view is from the eyes of insects!
