Of course, I wear a mitten on my head
cherish the polka-dot look
allow a bird to embellish the top
have one green eye and one blue
(don’t many of us?)
(along with the heart shaped nose?)

this lily plant is 46 years old
I bought it in Port Washington
and the most blooms it ever had were three.
Today it has 15 white flowers!
It appears the plant has also been resurrected in 2019!
I welcome the glorious energy
and share it with you!
Thank you, Creator,
for the resplendent revelation:
the exclamation to your glory!

Does baby fox
in her nightshirt
see the face of the moon differently than we do?
Does she see sharp teeth?
a luxurious tail?

in i"m scared, Poetry Tags: "start to trust Him", adult child, Christ, creator, Father, grandiosity, i"m scared, imagination, Just for today, Mother, sanctifier, self-assurance, status, Will you be too much for some people? Those aren't your people

I’m scared
I’m scared
of letting go of my
grandiosity.
self-assurance
moves me
impetuously.
Imagination flies me off
the ground.
status puffs me up with fluff.
If I let the Creator take over
His mystery will bring ambivalence.
And so
I’m scared.
Did you say: “start to trust him?”
I am not a child.
Or maybe, to Him I am.
Christ and Sanctifier,
show me the Father.
And the Mother
and the adult child that is me.
Please.
Just for today.
This poem is about:
Me

Knowing the man is life shaking
Today is the birthday of Steve Jobs, born in San Francisco (1955) to two University of Wisconsin graduate students who placed him for adoption. Clara and Paul Jobs, an accountant and a machinist, adopted him when he was still a baby. Growing up, Jobs and his father would tinker with electronics in the garage.
He dropped out of college after a semester, went to India in search of spiritual enlightenment, returned a devout Buddhist, experimented with LSD, and then got a job with a video game maker, where he was in charge of designing circuit board for one of the company’s games. In 1976, at the age of 21, he co-founded Apple Computers, and less than a decade later, Apple unveiled the Macintosh computer. It was the first small computer to catch on with the public that used a graphical user interface, or GUI (sometimes pronounced “gooey”)…
