do you forget how to swim ?

~~~~~~~~~~

we dont remember when we swam last

it will come in the the night / smile

when we lived in Vermont our mother came to visit / it was summertime / we decided to swim in paul and phoebe's pond


our mother put on an esther williams two piece number that we had on hand / it was white rubberized satin and the bra part had straps positioned to to fit around the neck forming a sweetheart neckline / the bottom part had a "chastity panel" but mom put the bottom on backwards so the skirt was across her bum

she spashed into the water like a girl / just like when we went to the beach when we were growing up / she loved to splash her arms and laugh at the water / she moved out further into the pretty pond splashing and laughing and soon she realized she was in over her head / she squealed in fear yet spun in the water and splashed all the way back to the grassy edge

gee whiz / we thought she could swim !

she said she could !

this is a blog i read everyday by a man who calls himself jurassicpork

he writes the kind of rant worthy of Gilliard or Horse

he is a lawbreaker too / my favorite kind / when the New York Times put the columnists we like the best behind a subscription wall JP published them on his blog / took some criticism for it / threats

some of us came to read krugman and stayed for jurassicpork

catch him soon / he plans to post more sporadically for a spell (check) smile

no kidding check out jurassicpork at Welcome to Pottersville

that thirty years ago i walked the red rebel horse, Valencia, off the mountain and down through the valley / 21 miles / to get ready to be a grandma

that was Moab, Utah 1977

today we are canning tomatoes from the grandson's garden and we will make cucumber soup with cucumbers from his garden

roast some peppers

listening to Al Green Full of Fire / the first music the grandkid ever heard two days old

we danced in the kitchen

indeed

of the universe that we
have survived ourselves

do you ever feel a tickle

~~~~

do you ever feel a tickle
under your big toe nail

?

(the big toe is connected to your brain eyes ears
(actually connected to every part of you)

the tickle is a twinkle a tickle on the toe
in the mind is a twinkle in the eye

this is the best time of my life ~~~
