Oh the wonders of my daughter in law…
Oliver and Annika explain the appearance of Mrs Snowthaw, the Lady Spring!
She melts the snow, calls
the birds, seedlings, roots, babies:
verdant beginnings!

in my feathers look like cactus quills, Poetry Tags: I burrow through sands, in desert, like prickly feathers, my feathers look like cactus quills, through cactus' spiny

funny the way my feathers look like cactus quills
I burrow though sands
in desert, through cactus’ spiny
like prickly feathers!

We are calm. Don is Don. I love Don.Don loves me.

cartoon of Don by Jeanne
.
These days I have a tender Don
He looks up toward me, trustingly.
Defenses quieted.
Useless against my letting go
Of obsessive control.
The lady with the hammer
has been replaced.
Now the matriarch nods
At foraging
schedules
eating oysters from a can.
Procrastination
reset
to jive with energy surge.
No more push and pull;
toggle switch
to switch tracks
move from sound to image
desk top to mobile
human to divine.
