Your exploration of human wanting is beautiful, potent, tender, mysterious...thank you!
I relish hiking off trail often here in San Diego's foothills through the deep brush and over boulders when the rattlesnakes are not slithering well hidden...Wandering is a lovely, brave, often delightfully surprising and foolishly grand way to live this brief time on earth....again, many thanks!
Desire paths. Hadn't heard a term for them before. The park I was walking in almost every day last year when I was recovering from surgery is full of them. One I took often lead to the creek, where one can find salmon in season, and bears at the end of said season. A pleasant spot to catch a breather and listen to bird song.
so beauitful

Here's to riding arrows endlessly...!
Made me really think, thank you
Wow. Just wow.

As always, I appreciate your writing.
Love this.
Gorgeous.
Another Wish for You
may you be
frequently ambushed,
thoroughly boonswoggled,
by a season of meandering joy,
a Mississippi of mischievous adventure,
a benign typhoon of good trouble,
redolent of favorite times
with people and
animals, places as well,
that sparkle you
with aliveness,
as you in turn
in your unbridled romping
transfigure
and effervesce all
with whom you’ve wandered
along muddy
cattailed riverbanks
bursting forth fat
blackberries, sizzling
dragonflies and
cottages shaded
by sycamores
serene as plump cats
lazing in sun, glistening
wonder like wildflowers
listening to rain.
Self love is a very important quality for personal fulfillment. You are rich in this quality.
