Mockingbird Music

Because of an infection, I haven't been able to walk the lake, the alley, the Goat Track, or the Community Gardens, my usual haunts. Thus, I haven't blogged.

I have missed the fleeting end of summer and falling of fall.

On leaving The Lemon Fair today, I encountered activity in the garden: a Monarch passing through, a bluish grasshopper balancing like a high-wire circus performer on a stem to eat some cosmos, and a full-throated mockingbird drowning out the traffic. Oh how lovely to stand on earth again among living things!
