This year is overflowing with dragonflies

Ancient, magical, calming and mystical.

 

They seem ever-curious about my chores - yet their visits are always brief.

They pause for a moment to rest and share a gaze between us

Alighting upon the cool freshly washed damp sheets 

As I clothespin each piece on the sagging but beloved clotheslines.

 

I ask them were they've been? Where they're going? And I wish them well 

They dart away, towards the sun, the breeze, and the magical freedom of

Their life in the meadows and the woods and the sky....

 

TRUTH #32

 It was true pre-corona, 

It will be true post-corona 

IT IS TRUE EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY

Warped, Strange, Insane (you know, worse than my normal baseline lol

 

This is the peculiar sort of humor that evolves into full laugh out loud mode

in my warped strange  pandemic lockdown mind whilst pondering the possibility insanity '

improbability of any future home projects......   :-)

A BIT OF A LAUGH (SOMETIMES) CAN'T BE A BAD THING

A bit of a laugh can't be a bad thing lol!  :-)   

(I am sad for every driver/deer/car - including myself - that's been thru this) 

THESE TIMES

There are the best of times

There are the worst of times

Then there are THESE times

which are, to me at least, 

beyond any conceptual descriptors.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So.....

Be as kind as you can

Be as understanding as you can

Be thoughtful and aware that we are all in this crisis together

And be aware that we will all be in this together when life returns to normal again (in whatever form)

Live these times of crisis in a way that will let you be proud of :

what you said, (or didn't say) 

what you did (or didn't do) 

so you are able to be proud of your actions and words when the crisis is finally over....................
