Sometimes, we get a thorny reaction
for being kind.
Discover the little mystery
behind that frown.
It might be just the stench in the breeze
from the cow-hill.
Be cool, and see the relationship bloom.

At the shopping-mall
Like blind man’s eyes
the door to the famed store
sees no one, silent, gone with
the hay days.
Every where new ones,
lively, full of hope, bustling
with young and bright faces–
asparagus after rain.
Some change for the sake of
change, in hopes to draw eyes,
to find a promising road to
the dream land.
An old dame steals
a glance at the nostalgist.
We nod, unspoken, yet
agree: we gray-heads are still
in crowd.

Some story
I’m back from a week getaway. Some of you might shake head
at the idea of vacationing with family-in-law. That was exactly
what I did, participating in the gathering of in-laws for the
most of the time. Some families have a few unpleasant characters,
like a grouch old man or a hot-tempered old lady who tend to
ruin the fun-time. It takes a well-rounded person to turn any
stinky situation into a sweet experience. At least some of us
try to be one.
This one room cabin is where Rick and I stayed.
Inside is better than it appears outside.
This building across the mud puddle is a restroom.
In the wee hour, in the soft rain, I would venture
outside of my cabin. Often I’d encounter a bush-tailed
fox or something with glowing eyes caught in my
flashlight.
I took this photo while driving back home. Just watching
the usual cloudscape above the green hill lifted me. Nice
addition to the end of the little vacation.
There are, of course, more interesting stories. But I would
keep them in my memory. Some stories shine when you
look back.
