Petals blow away
rosebuds drift from thorny stems
airing difference
''
Raindrops cleanse contrast
stormcloud mists wash airborne buds
orographic faith
''
Soaked, soothed, sustained soil
porous pleads; red lips return
heart recovery
''
Clay, corolla spark
seedlings sleep; rerooted hearth
blossoms bloom again

Guard Your Battery
Why are some people so attractive just by standing there? It’s not because they are "likable," but because they don’t need everyone to like them. I realized later that truly charismatic people allow themselves to be criticized, but they never criticize themselves. They never try to please the world; instead, the world stops to watch them.

Review of 'Man on the Run'
My wife and I saw Man on the Run, a nearly 2-hour documentary on Amazon Prime, about Wings, Paul McCartney's group that flew around the world from shortly after The Beatles broke up in early 1970 to shortly after John Lennon was murdered at the end of 1980, making a Beatles reunion forever impossible.
