I do not think it was forgotten after the Yankee Swap ended and all the dinner guests had departed. I’m pretty sure she left the rose in the glass on purpose to sit upon the kitchen table. Since it took up so little room I left it there to see what time would reveal. And as is sometimes the case, time revealed great beauty.

Two new posters available in my Zazzle shop. Just click on the image for more information on availability. The first image is of spicy cress sprouting in a shell I found on Revere Beach. The second image is of clover, a “weed” I recently learned is edible, so in a little clay pot it now grows next to my other herbs.

And in the bucket where my mini crop of potatoes once grew, a wonderfully gnarly growth of nasturtium. No blooms quite yet, but I’m waiting.

Dispersion. The separation of visible light into different colors. This is simply sunlight shining through a glass of sparkling water. What a wonderful world. 😉

Indeed, ice did cover the windows this morning creating beautiful backgrounds, far off landscapes and whole universes.
I even found a rainbow.

One of the challenges I set for myself at the end of last year was to practice what I was preaching which was encouraging other people to submit their creative works to literary and commercial publications. Towards that end, I submitted three images of a Somerville sunset to the online literary magazine, The Critical Pass. I was honored that one of the images was selected to appear in the current issue, viewable via this link. While, if you choose, you can easily discover which of these three images was selected, I hope you’ll have time to browse the other works in this issue, as well, from the thoughtful Letter from the Editor to a wonderful interview with a 15-year old poet (pp. 18-20).
FYI, each of these images is available in my Zazzle Shop here, here and here.
