the pandemic too

distancing

quarantine

empty shelves

fear

solidarity

faith, hope and love…in good measure!

 

In the woods…

where bacteria comes from

 

where virus come from

where viruses morph

where cells are born

where white cells multiply

where red cells multiply…..

maybe that’s why there’s so much toilet paper hoarding!

I Heard You Solemn-Sweet Pipes of the Organ


by Walt Whitman

I heard you solemn-sweet pipes of the organ as last Sunday 
morn I pass’d the church,


Winds of autumn, as I walk’d the woods at dusk I heard your 
long-stretch’d sighs up above so mournful,


I heard the perfect Italian tenor singing at the opera, I heard 
the soprano in the midst of the quartet singing;


Heart of my love! you too I heard murmuring low through 
one of the wrists around my head,


Heard the pulse of you when all was still ringing little bells
 last night under my ear.

The power Grid of NYC

bends the lights

robes the cold

guides the lost

sprinkles stars

aid intestinal health

and balance our health needs…

space is:

negative and positive

light and dark

expanding and contracting

occupied and available

eternal and time locked

translucent and dense

the watercolor knows its mystery…

in the 80’s, I caricatured myself as a jogger, sweating over the laptop creating animated GIF’s  for my fans on the net

Adobe Creative Suite was my tool

and I taught AdobePhotoShop

to many high school and college students in NYC and NYS.

One Day


by Laura Foley

 

I didn’t read the news.


I raked a rainbow


of pungent autumn leaves,


played abroad with happy dogs,


held my granddaughter in my arms,


and sat beneath an amiable maple,


attentive to current events.
