sam-eating plant

This plant has captured me alive!

It happened last weekend 

at the 50%-off sale at the nursery.

She's a big fuzzy begonia

3 and-a-half feet across

with screwy leaves the size of dinner plates.

For now, she's living like a big ape

 in the tree out back.

Here's a gift for all of my blogging buds.

Take a quiet moment and watch this video.

It'll do you good.

Jim McVicker leads a charmed life.

I say that without envy,

 just a true appreciation for a life so beautifully shared.

Okay, but you'd have to be seriously nuts 

not to be just a little envious.

water on the brain

Water defines where you are.

Will there be enough?

Is there too much? 

These leaked into my sketchbook.

I have no idea what they mean,

but they made a nice page.

refraction

The alleys are full of miraculous treasures.

Early one morning, the dog noticed

this unusual doorway

and paused for a moment to refract.
