100 percent agree. I will never forget my first show at the Hansen Planetarium as a child. It was like stepping into a Star Trek dimension!

Sky-Slipped

All spaces aureate
Between breaths,
Sunning colors
In the cooling,
Gold upon gold,
(Leaves lose their hold)
There is no sound
But falling into flight.
Autumn undoes everything.

*A bit of fall fun!

My mom loved African Violets. Whenever I pass by them at the store, it's like a little petal postcard of her happiness.

I'm learning how to use Artweaver. For fun, I illustrated my favorite poem by Thomas Hood in comic format.

This poem by Thomas Hood was published almost 200 years ago. And yet, even today, to read it aloud is to taste the echo of melancholy and imagination inked fresh on the tip of the tongue. I illustrated it in comic format for the fun of it!

Lady, Lost and Found

I couldn't leave
this scuffed cameo
languishing inside
a bowl of pins.
She was only one dollar,
but I feel like she holds
a wealth of stories in
her crystalline gaze
and rose-bordered trim.

My cousin Angie took me to the mall
to get my ears pierced at thirteen,
a looong overdue rite of passage.
I can still feel the prick of pain followed
by the instant aura of glamor . . .

I offer up this frayed flower, because even a tattered hydrangea is a gossamer thing of beauty. I love autumn, because it reminds me that it’s okay to shed old petals and sleep a season while gathering strength for another spring.

Happy Ctenophore Day!
These glowing ocean drifters look like jellyfish but aren’t! They’re comb jellies, shimmering creatures that light up the sea with rows of beating cilia 💙🌈

If you’re wondering why we haven’t met aliens, it might be because habitable zone planets just don’t get smashed almost to pieces often enough.
