One of the Tlaquepaque Count Yards In The Late Afternoon, Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts in Sedona (June 14, 2016) — Image by kenne
So hear the tones of cedar flow,
Reminding us from place afar,
A gift of art from Navaho,
a sea of sound — a reservoir.
The breathy notes pushed from the wood
with airy tones in triple trill,
is calling us to brotherhood
that bathes the heart when all is still.
Listen as it calls the eagle,
the bear, the deer and buffalo,
brothers of the kingdoms regal,
sister spirits of long ago.
These ancient sounds from wooden voice,
in sentient wait below the bark,
now sing in beauty to rejoice —
returning song to Meadowlark.
— from The Diné by Rolland G. Smith

Five in the Afternoon
“A boy brought the white sheet
at five in the afternoon.
A frail of lime already prepared
at five in the afternoon.
The rest was death and death alone
at five in the afternoon.”
— Federico Garcia Lorca

Intensifying the moment.
