An Occasion

Five years ago I decided to check out this place my friend Jen had been led to by a friend. Funny how these things go. Jen rarely writes here anymore, although I wish she would as she is a very observant and intelligent young woman, and if she just wrote openly her thoughts and observations of life and people, I think many would get much from them. I, however, blather incessantly about all sorts of things that I come across as I make my way through days. Go figure.

Now, I didn’t know it then, not until quite a bit later actually, but the day I began writing here is also Folláin’s birthday. I will not say which one today is, but it’s here. So, as has been my practice for the past four years, I celebrate both today.

I overslept! I must get going fast … and even take the @#$%^&* subway. May your day be something wonderful.
*Edit* I took the bus; just couldn’t make myself go down under the ground. *Edit done*

Birthday

I wish you
a breeze from the sea
blowing steady all night long
to bear you through dreams
cool and gentle
to the morning of your day

May you
and the company you keep
open memories as gifts
of laughter and surprise
from sunrise until
your new year’s first night
takes you into its first day
and then

May goodness and health
joy and strength be yours
now and for so many years
to come for you
realizations and hope
love in every form it can take

May we still hit the road together
just to see what we may see
talk as only you and I
can talk
today
I celebrate my soul’s best friend
ever

~~~~~~~~~~

Five years on

There’s no more Subaru
she was exposed by moonlight
superceded too soon
by mystic revelations

Chester got away from me
before coffee in Greenwich Mean Time
a world was laid before me
unworthy as I am
I’ve found angels
I’m finding them still

Here’s hoping your subway ride wasn’t too horrible. I can’t imagine having to take the subway during rush hour. I overslept on monday. yesterday I was about 8 minutes late for work, and today I got here EXACTLY on time. Maybe tomorrow I’ll be 5 minutes early. 🙂

Happy Anniversary and Birthday to Follian! And a big *hug*

You avoid subway at all costs? Is it a convenience thing or a fear issue?

5 years already? Boy how times flies. My “observations” tend to go unnoticed at times. I doubt I can get back into writing about anything here without letting the cynical part of me that has crept in to be unleashed upon the world. My brain is fried and I don’t have the energy anymore. Maybe one day I will start again :p *pokes*
