tare away calender quotes, daily lunch time paper revelations

(calender page for Wednesday Dec. 6th '06)

"Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it will elude you. But if you turn your attention to other things, it comes softly and sits on your shoulder."



(remembering this in Frisco, 7/18/07)

subtle little butterfly
lands upon my unsuspecting shoulder
you came to me
net-less and free
our moments fat with simple beauty
the purest light
the clearest water
that butterfly on my shoulder
I'd hang my wings forever
to beat together as one flutter
