Run away



"At night we will set our poems
adrift in ginger ale bottles
each with a clamshell rudder
each with a piggyback spider..."

From "Running Away Together" by Maxine W. Kumin

It's hot. About 101 degrees in heat-stroked Austin, Texas.

And I am underwater on the "things to do and things to handle" list.

But, as ever, I'm glad you stopped by.

Hugs! Or, well, spritzes of nice cool water, or something!

And I am glad you still got time for a post.
It is always good to visit you.

got the "hots" here too.
steamy (maybe that humidity makes you feel "underwater" anyway)

Keep doing and handling, Lori.

The "things to do" looks a lot like my desk!

I was just admiring your amazing way of combining poetry and photographs, always refreshing to my mind and heart. Thank you.
