yesterday morning,

when i sat up in bed

and looked out the window

this is what i saw.

sometimes i wonder why we venture out 

into the big wide world.

 but then i realize that when we do, 

it is still magical vermont,

even here in the capital city,

where the statehouse backs up to the woods.

that's ceres,

the goddess of agriculture

standing on the top of the dome.

(no gmo's!)

and at the montpelier farmer's market,

while buying some earrings and chatting with

the artist, i realized he's an earlham grad.

 such a lovely, small and wonderful world

we live in.

be still my heart.

this is rhubarb-ade.

does anyone have the recipe?

one of the best things i have ever tasted.

june.

it is indeed filled with joy.
