How does one this without crying?

Are you watching me now?
All alone in this place Are you seeing me cry?
Oh, how I miss your face
And the warmth of your smile
The light in your eyes
There was no “fare thee well”
And there was no “goodbye”

You are correct Dave. October 3, 2024

Microgreens seem to be all the rage these days and for good reason: they are packed with nutrients and easy to grow!

I was showing her my garden and she wrapped her hands around the leaves of my young cauliflower plants and folded them upward. “When your cauliflower begins to form a bud, pull your […]

How I'm Voting September 13, 2024
A friend on Facebook asked me who I’d be voting for in November. For whatever they’re worth, my thoughts:I think reasoning tends to be more interesting and useful than conclusions, and going into my reasoning would take a while. But to try to summarize: I don’t think America has two political parties; I think we […]
