To follow it in chronological order, begin with Glenn.
Summers in New Hampshire provide a teenager with blissfully warm weather and an abundance of distractions from the boredom that seems to accompany the day-to-day existence of the young. There were the streams in which I’d fish for trout, and the marinas filled with pickerel, and Weirs Beach with its small mouth bass. My [...]
Hmmmm. . . feeling in the mood for a little passion today…
I love the gestures, the embraces. I love the passionate, sensual energy captured in each painting, especially Chekirov and Martinez … Oh My! My imagination soars, crosses the ocean between us and you are here, embracing me.
I love Passion ! Now that’s an inspiring gallery. But sweetness, how ever did you miss this Chekirov print?
Hmmm? Ms. Passionate Parisien?

A rumination on Steely Dan’s "Green Book". (Lyrics )
A fantasy — the Green Book — a tome of loves had, and loves lost, and loves never known — and from them a conglomerate, a creation of iconic love, Marilyn 4.0…a vision of nostalgia that never was, before him, there, all Kiss Me Deadly.
My mind is [...]
Glad you understood and appreciate The Butterfly , Peter. I found this today on the 11:11 site, perhaps its timing is as pertinent
THE PATH OF EMERGENCY
If we continue walking on the crumbling road of duality, we will experience a continual state of emergency. If we are still working at a job we hate, it [...]
There’s a beauty that never fades, endures all time
There’s a divinity that pervades all beings, all things
There’s a grace that characterises all movement, all art
That divine, beautiful grace . . .
. . . is Love.
