Margin Path Greenwood
As the Green-wood Poet, I’ve been to Greenwood easily twice as many times as I’ve been to the Met Museum and was still surprised by the margin path in Greenwood (I don’t really believe in dashes, even in proper names, only em dashes and only for parentheticals).

building blocks
You are building blocks, my son. High and even hard to see where it reaches puff of clouds. You are looking far -far beyond that silver sparkle when the jumping fish applauds. I have you one more year. Carried in my heart with crown, scepter, cape and much more gear. I celebrate you with no…
