Hello Fall!


The crisp morning air, the brisk bite of wind, the crinkle of the leaves.

Hello fall!

My, where did the summer go with all its heat and bluster? How did we wake us and under blankets we muster?

Looking out the balcony and staring at the trees, goodbye summer breeze!

Hello fall!

We missed the long sleeves and the scarves donned anew, hot chocolate and lattes, warming me, warming you.

We Must Change By The Hand

Deny Destroy Defer Disgrace Dreadful Double Speak Death Destruction Demon Devil We must change, we must change, we must change.  Children should not die at the hands that hold weapons such as these.  We must change.  Rights are not rights to slaughter. Nonsense in mass murder. Cowardice in suicide. Children should not die at the hands that hold weapons such as these. 12/14/12...not again...my heart hurts for Newtown Connecticut and the 20 children and 6 adults murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
