I recently saw another post by a friend who said that she really hated it when people just stopped blogging without any explanation and I realize that I’ve been guilty of that. I haven’t blogged in a long time for a variety of reasons, but I’m now officially closing this site. I may resume blogging in some form or other and if so, I will do it at daphnepurpus.com. Part of my problem was that I had way too many blogs to maintain, and so if I begin again it will be with just one blog. Thank you for following me and I’m sorry for just disappearing, so to speak.

picking up poop
pine sap
on my toe

finishing
one puzzle
starting another
looking out at
the lovely day

two fawns
grazing in the field
cherry blossoms

getting a hair cut
and color
fruit trees
beginning to blossom
across the island

crisscrossing overhead vapor trails

waking
to no heat
a new thermostat
installed
before tutoring

an odd number
of letters
outlier

restless nights
followed by
long days
frosted cyclamen
along the walkway

a baby squirrel
on the deck
sunrise

a full day
of tutoring
one student
after another
ice on the birdbath

hidden
in the clouds
the sound of an airplane

piece by piece
working on a
new puzzle
