today


i yearn for the soft metallic light of the sunrise over the atlantic.


for the joy of discovery.


for the playful chatter of gulls and pelicans.


and the peace that only the ocean can provide.

my community lost a gentle soul today.  he was a good good man and a great judge.

i imagine he is in a place surrounded by all these gifts of the sea.  a place where each child is loved and safe.
