Under the gracious sun this afternoon,

trying to outrun approaching thunder 

clouds is futile.  I look up at the sky.
Allowing, accepting would be wiser.
                Rain on me.

Today my house is dark early.

This is what Moon must have felt

without us home.  She has finally

stopped her mournful meowing -
               being alone.

Yes, I am here, but also there,

of Michigan and Minnesota

a duo citizen, an artist mom. 

Sarie can't come over till Sunday.
               I miss Orion. 

             
             And tomorrow?

What will tomorrow bring?
Michael.  Michael of Minnesota

and more.  I smile at the thought of him.
He is a contented citizen of the world,

               the universe.
We're all citizens, awakening consciousness
of the universe.  We just don't know it.
I am of the mind, one day we will.
What will our earth be like then?
