day 304



super moon
.
just
on the cusp of
full,
November’s beaver
moon casts long beams of gold splintered by
barren
tree limbs, swept by tempests
scattering
leaves on the cool ground

A poem and a glimmer. Tonight’s almost full moon offers just a taste of Wednesday’s spectacular super moon event. In case it rains on Wednesday night, I am grateful to have witnessed a glimpse. She’s a beauty this month, drawing me in like the sea swelling toward the shore. 

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you.

day 303

autumn leaves
.
streams
of morning light
cast
a tawny hue through
my window, full autumn’s spectacle
in view
orange, gold, burgundy
too soon winds will come
winter trees
naked in the snow

More glimmers from this weekend…Autumn in her fullness!

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you!

day 302

What’s something you believe everyone should know.

open minds

never stop learning
we don’t know what we don’t know
fools insist they do

I attended a social event recently. The table conversation was quite enlightening and disturbing. (I didn’t say much…just listened). People declared such outrageous things with such confidence and assurance of validity of their truth! It was shocking. Their remarks were right out of a certain propaganda playbook. I used to think that intelligent people surely saw right through the lies and what’s happening in our country and the world. But I was mistaken in that assumption. My wife corrected me when we spoke about it after I got back home.

“Educated does not always mean intelligent,” she remarked. Wow! That perfectly explained it. There’s a reason I limit my time in public and prefer the company of deer, squirrels, crows, and trees.

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you!

Today’s glimmer is the view out my window as I work. I love autumn! 🍂🍁✨💚✨🍁


day 301

What does it mean to be a kid at heart?

that kid

you know her you know
she’s the one who reminds you
you’ve made it this far

she’s just a glimmer some days…


day 300

the circus

the elephant is sitting
in the middle of the room
having left its corner though
no one seemed to notice…
an elephant is no small thing
but we were distracted
by flying monkeys and rats,
so many rats, termites gnawing
through the walls, ants and roaches
reducing the foundation to dust
it was the elephant
in the middle of the room…
an elephant is no small thing,
perched on a pedestal,
a blue ball balanced
vicariously on his snout
that held our attention
as the walls came tumbling down

I need a glimmer. When this happens I head to the hills…(out my back door) and dear Mother Nature draws me in. She’s fading these days into gold, orange and crimson, as if to say, kat, what you really need is a good long nap. I’m not entirely convinced that is a good idea with winter’s blight closing in. But she shushes me with a lullaby as soft as new fallen snow, and whispers as I drift to sleep…spring is coming.

and just like that…in my dreams the circus disappeared, as circuses do, leaving only sawdust in its wake…

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you. ~kat ✨✨✨💚💚💚✨✨✨
