Rain storm poured across Texas

Our power stayed on!

Sun, cool, dry fresh air

We don’t need no stinkin’ jobs

Afternoon delight (naps)

Us Texans can’t stop Texas

From blooming in spring

Done today, or a month from

Now … living the life!

My eyes at morning

Hooded, hiding, open wide

Do not be afraid

Marg – the plane! The plane!

I drive by great Tesla plant

Head for Grandma Dot

Walk right up to death

Jesus loves me, this I know

Marg’s voice strong … clear tears

 

March 10

Eyes only open

Look – see Jesus’ open arms

Teeth gone, silent pleas

Strange but sweet, to sit

Around Dot’s hospital bed

In her living room

Familiar voices

Friendship Diner -DST (time change)

Bright sun, where art thou?

Hard rain, snow, wind blows

Rough welcome to Urbana

But the cold feels good

Jack’s scholastic bowl

Whip-smart, soft spoken captain

Stack states, long time ago

99, feisty to end

What will Kay do now?

Even sleep is hard
