just thinkin'

I think that I would like to marry the kind of man who, if we lived in a small community, would be in the volunteer fire department.

for lacy

Because I'm not feeling especially clever or creative right now... missing you too much for that(thanks for shattering me with your words) ... here is one of our favorite poems to tell you how I feel about you until I can compose myself enough to try and express it myself:

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

-e.e. cummings

birds are my favorite and my best

I've posted a new link to the myspace page of a friend of a friend of my sisters. She has beautiful paintings and her cd is great too. I just really love birds. When I grow up I will have lots of bird feeders and a bird bath in the back garden.

when you wish upon a star

*I wish I didn't make things so complicated.
*I wish the path to making things right was lined with little white stones and clearly sign-posted.
*I wish everyone believed in magic.
*I wish I were better at re-using things creatively.
*I wish whining was actually a hard thing to do.
*I wish I had curly hair.
*I wish that no child in the world ever went hungry.
*I wish that everyone had a meaningful job that they enjoyed.
*I wish I could see the unseen.
*I wish to see justice roll like streams down the mountains and flood the earth.
