there are only three winners:
the one who competes with himself,
the one who crosses the finish line first
and the one who finishes the race.

i can always rely
on a bleeding heart
to bring the first blush of colour
to my yard
sometimes it good
to honour
a bleeding heart

if there is anything
i like better than
public art
it must be
interaction public art
my sister
my mom
and an unsuspecting bystander

three little raindrops
sitting on a leaf
so tiny
yet powerful enough to stop me in my tracks
and distract me
with their beauty

when i saw this card last week
i knew i just had to have it
this is so me
thanks to juicy designs of ottawa
for so accurately capturing
my essence!
uncool... and totally cool with that
jour 128::365
ottawa's very own
bytowne cinema
where else can i get
a quality movie and a popcorn
for $10
today's treat:
the year dolly parton was my mom
a true gem of a film!
long live
the single screen repertory cinema
jour 127::365
this is one of my favourite sculptures
in ottawa's downtown core
it challenges
it provokes
it comforts
it speaks to me
of the one-ness
beyond religion
jour 126::365
for me
there is a moment
that hangs between excitement and dread
when choosing
the next read
a moment
that can only exist
in a world of
too many choices
jour 125::365
at long last
the handfull of tulips
in my front yard
have decided to present themselves
like a gift

this book
is coming undone
not unexpected for a volume
published in 1508
(a book from the rare book collection of the dominican university college, ottawa)
jour 122::365
they sure don't make 'em
like this anymore
and with this classic
i am now officially 1/3 of the way
to completing my 365
yay me!
jour 121::365
taking a photo
of the date
on the calendar
is this the bottom of barrel
in the realm of the 365??!
jour 120::365
saw this resting
on the top of somebody's garbage heap
slightly frayed and stained
still
one person's garbage
may very well be
another person's dream
