2011 photo - "crossing the waters to Chacachacare Island"

akin to new sites...
a novel eagerly read
draws us to this quest

vastness of the azure sky
a pirogue skims the waters

in the far distance
the much talked about lighthouse...
sea spray undaunting

2013 photo, (the lady in the red top - my daughter) in the queue to buy tickets for a movie


She wears her jeans of blue,
Caught in a teenage oooh;
"Looks painted on"
Those catty cronies remark;
Oh, but she; happy as a lark.



craft camp...
a pair of ragged jeans morphs
into a tote

the night is over, yet this moth
slumber tranced clings to the wall

yellows flecks unfailingly stayed
span two centimeters if so many

morning light streams through
is she warm cold or even she

mottled dusky wings refusing flight
to rest and mysteriously to disappear

the imaginary garden with real toads-'Open Link Monday with Magaly'

a red hibiscus
plucked from a wayside fence blooms...
thus just for a smile



those starched white shirts
once our grand mothers pressed...
flat irons relics



untimely black outs...
the whispered requests for
candles and matches

checking my swollen upper lip again
...had a procedure done 4 years ago to burn out a flat mole which popped up, and spread towards my upper lip line. Now near that scar, some others popped up, one of which again spread to nestle just my upper lip line again. So, on Thursday, went to doctor, by the time i got home my upper lip was huge; that's the process. So now the next few weeks i have to keep the area dry and apply the prescribed antibiotic powder during healing
