'Mumsie' surrounded mostly by singing grandchildren hungry for cake and ice cream.
Focused Energy
9/17/11
Unexpected upon long return flight home
from visiting loved one in Finland
I oozed power, clarity, following day
up before 4 am., blogging, writing,
starting laundry, watering garden, making smoothie,
speaking medicine wheel gratitude, business calls,
grocery shopping, looked over job possibility
after delivering pickup for brake repair,
dropped petsitter at S.J. bus station,
prepped for celebrating Mom's 88th birthday
that is friends/family reunion Saturday,
dinner followed late afternoon banking when
stumbling upon Greek Festival food boothes ,
found hummingbird card while searching gift
on Pacific Garden Mall for 'Mumsie',
deciding instead to sing 'her' song
with guitar in crazy improv style
honed by practice of Ipod recordings,
which I'll do for epic story
of 'Dotties' life that'll easily flow
from heart, to head, through lips,
into ears connecting with 30 souls
having prior to supplied adjective each,
maybe more, to describe 'Spitzer matriarch'
who'll undoubtedly laugh, cry while listening
lengthy meandering tale embellished with humor
about Dorothy's existence and focused energy.
