Home.


Found here
maggie and milly and molly and may
went down to the beach(to play one day)

and maggie discovered a shell that sang
so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles,and

milly befriended a stranded star
whose rays five languid fingers were;

and molly was chased by a horrible thing
which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and

may came home with a smooth round stone
as small as a world and as large as alone.

For whatever we lose(like a you or a me)
it's always ourselves we find in the sea 
E. E. Cummings

I had dreams about Hawaii last night. I was up on the Point at night, walking CHRIS home! Hahah! I guess Neil wasn't in the picture anymore (!!) but I was annoyed and like, "this just isn't going to work" with Chris. Yep, some things stay the same. Not the best Hawaii dream I've had, but always fun to "visit" places in dreams that are so far away. Enjoy the real thing!
