A place to gather words before they get lost.

Outside, a man on the one-wheel gyro plays his guitar, the amplifier on his back cranked up to something close to heaven as he cruises city streets

Inside, a man hunches over the Grand, communing quietly with chords, his fingers gracing the keys, as the bass and drums follow his musical lead

American Ash, I know this can't last, but you're such a burst of white flower in bloom, like the door's been opened and these bees have wandered into the room

Driving through Peru, there's not much there to see or to do, just rivers and forests —more than a few dirt roads, too — but if you travel through, be sure to shout yoo-hoo to the 800 plus hardy folk living in these beautiful, isolated Western Massachusetts woods, no doubt happy to be off the grid in such a mixed up world, too

Percussive mallets ring out against the dark night; thunder among stars

The nest of chipmunks starts at the hole in the ground, then tunnels way down

Hidden beneath dirt, the roots are a city in communication

Each morning, as my brain kicks into gear, I wait for the Daily Create to appear I laugh in surprise at what awaits my eyes and then I make it — another day in the year

Banjos and guitars - the porch pickers count it off, descend into song

And then there was green: Trees, lawns and the in-between where small flowers bloom
