“The solitary Bee
whose buzzing was the
only sound of life,
flew there on restless wing,
Seeking in vain
one blossom where to fix.”

— Robert Southey

Gaint Two-tailed Swallowtail — Photo-artistry by kenne

and they could legally have sex with 10-year-old girls, there are many beautiful things in Arizona.

A Little Holidays Touch In The Bedroom — Image by kenne

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, 2023

Like silence,
I am the sudden entrance 
of that feature of the air
among the atmospheres
thathas no voice
butthe whirlwind bringing
the world to its new welcome>
I am the comfort that comes,
that irreproachable and obscure love
the world dies to have
now welcoming
and worth the saving.
