I enjoy the walk through these crowded woods. It's good to be back among deeply seated young and old trees again. That familiar smell, you want to always savor it so very much, to not deny any of it. It smells like a blue sky, the…

I got my new dog today,
a toy terrier, as advertised,
from an online retailer,
and printed him or her,
