Mom

December 29th, 1924 - March 23rd, 2022

 

This has, unfortunately, been a long time coming, Though I've had the occasional scattered moments in recent weeks and recent months, moments to try and write something down about all of this, I've had neither the focus nor the energy. I will, hopefully, at some point in the not too distant future.

For now, rest in peace, Mom. I'm sorry the end of the road was so rough for you. I love you and I'm glad you were, and always will be, my Mom.

The Deep Heart's Core

I've always loved the poem The Lake Isle of Innisfree by William Butler Yeats. And for many years now, I've enjoyed it as set to music by Bill Douglas.

Over the last few weeks and months, I have been listening to it a great deal. In ways I can't express, I feel it more deeply than ever before.

Today's Artwork...

 ...is from Jake circa 1997.

More proof that teaching matters.
