Part of the genesis of the story referenced in the previous post, about The Long Walk, was an accidental 26 mile walk I took a few months ago. Now, people keep asking me, “How do you accidentally walk a marathon?” Well, let me tell you, it is possible, if you keep wondering what’s around the bend.

What do forks have to do with a long walk? Well, just click the picture or on this link to find out. Find a tale inspired by my interactions with a five-year old who has grown adept at asking “can you make up a story about [fill in the blank],” and my interactions with a 50-plus year old who has the spirit of a five-year old who tells me quite often what he will do with a fork in the road.
With such muses in my life, how could I not write this tale? Please enjoy and let me know what you think.

Call and Response with the Sun*
Sun, will you shine in my sky?
Lord, yes indeed, I will try.
Sun, will you shine, brightening my sky?
Lord, yes indeed, I will try.
Sun, will you shine in my sky?
Lord, yes indeed, I will try.
Sun, my sweet sun, will your light fill this world?
Yes, Lord! Yes, indeed, I will try.
*Lyrics composed while sittin’ in the sun.

A few blossoms found by the seashore this weekend. They suddenly glowed in a shaft of afternoon light.
One of those unexpected sights that made many a person pause, and one older gentleman even exclaimed, “What a glorious day it has turned out to be.”

Yesterday I went for a walk by the river, and for the most part I kept stumbling upon beautiful abstraction.
