When lights get brighter
This poet will be ever-present in my life. Andrea Gibson’s work has been seeded through my own for years, and will be for years to come. Andrea transitioned just over a week ago. I, along with a world of lovers-of-her-spirit, wept. Still weep. Her writing delivered raw truth painted in buttercups upon fields of beauty. Ushered forth by a voice that, with technology and memory, will linger for as long as humans have access to them. Here is one of Andrea’s departing gifts:

Summertime Update
Hoping your summertime has been unfolding in beautiful fashion, that you have taken time for reflection and rejuvenation, that you are experiencing the perfect balance of time in solitude and in social spheres, and that you have connected frequently with Nature (ie: bare feet on ground!) Here is a glimpse at Twinkle’s new location. It is filled with wildflowers, delightful aromas and magical groves! Details to come soon.
