These are the professional pictures of Mayfield Artists Book Project, any boy born without pretension and raised in the hill country late 1800's --turn of the century. On Friday May 20, I wrote about this project.

Magpie
Unexpected, Unrequested
All dressed up
To the party we go
He examines the morsel
With the special glass
Round and ground
Shiny and clear
A parcel of sun
Served with the chicken
Unexpected
Unrequested
Our host asks
Who is responsible
And all the while
The musician
Plays his lute
And giggles

Sunday Scribblings #268 Better late than not at all
Better Late Than Not at All
As agreed
I pressed the
Numbers on the phone
Again you are not there
Perhaps you will call
Better late than not at all
The smell of your baking
Floats out the door
And into my own
It was not ready
For breakfast
Better late than not at all
The minutes tick
Time flies by
I was early
Now late
Better late than not at all
I wait for the phone to ring
The e-mail to come
Hear your voice
Read your message
Better late than not at all
