Biking out into the dystopian morning with an air quality index of 124 in Minneapolis. Holding everyone in Manitoba in my heart.

“Soft” is the theme of the gardens at Lake Harriet this summer. How did the gardeners know exactly what we needed?

Catalpa blossom on sidewalk
The catalpa trees are blooming in Minneapolis. All the yards and alleys look like they are carpeted in orchids.

Is everyone working on your signs for the No Kings rallies on 6/14? Just have to cut out the letters and glue it together. I used part of an old cardboard sewing pattern cutting table protectors so the sign will fold up in my bicycle pannier when I bike to the rally. See you at the rallies!

The Midtown Greenway Coalition and the Bare Bones Puppet Theater offered a beautiful memorial procession today to help people mourn loved ones and navigate grief with love. It also remembered George Perry Floyd who was killed in our neighborhood five years ago this weekend.

Haiku a day 30 for national poetry month:
Gunpowder pollen
pistils black as burnt matchtips
blooom, flower bomb
Haiku a day 29 for national poetry month:
I pass, eye to eye,
with a robin in her nest
expectant, serene
Haiku a day 28 for national poetry month:
Rorschach weather map,
metastasizing inkblots,
what is your meaning?
Haiku a day 27 for national poetry month:
New book, cup of tea,
an afternoon ignoring
dishes and laundry
Haiku a day 26 for national poetry month:
Knitting fills silence
when there’s nothing left to say
except I love you
Haiku a day 25 for national poetry month:
A bird, a bouquet
bundled on long stems, waiting
to take flight and bloom
