bluebirds come..and bluebirds go...

About Me

***This is my delight* thus to wait and watch at the wayside* where shadow chases light* and the rain comes in the wake of the summer.*Messengers, with tidings from unknown skies,*greet me and speed along the road.*My heart is glad within,* and the breath of the passing breeze is sweet.*From dawn till dusk I sit here before my door,* and I know that of a sudden*the happy moment will arrive when I shall see.*In the meanwhile I smile and I sing all alone.* In the meanwhile the air is filling with the perfume of promise. ***

My Interests


Our Gang - Alfalfa, The Barber of Seville

Watch Video Clip
*Johnny's in the basement* Mixing up the medicine* I'm on the pavement* Thinking about the government..........*my heart STILL belongs to bunny** i'd like to see an aurora borealis before i become one. ** i love the lake and also camille's living room ** P.S. - my computer bit the dust. - R.I.P. - as a result, my once prodigious correspondences and various forms of written wordery are in suspended animation for awhile. yup. ** When I go alone at night to my love-tryst, birds do not sing, the wind does not stir, the houses on both sides of the street stand silent. It is my own anklets that grow loud at every step and I am ashamed.When I sit on my balcony and listen for his footsteps, leaves do not rustle on the trees, and the water is still in the river like the sword on the knees of a sentry fallen asleep. It is my own heart that beats wildly -- I do not know how to quiet it.When my love comes and sits by my side, when my body trembles and my eyelids droop, the night darkens, the wind blows out the lamp, and the clouds draw veils over the stars. It is the jewel at my own breast that shines and gives light. I do not know how to hide it.

I'd like to meet:

***Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high* Where knowledge is free * Where the world has not been broken up into fragments * By narrow domestic walls * Where words come out from the depth of truth * Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection * Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way * Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit * Where the mind is led forward by thee * Into ever-widening thought and action * Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake *** - Rabindranath Tagore
