can’t boil an egg?

January 26, 2010 jbh Leave a comment


i know some people are challenged when it comes to cooking, but frozen peanut butter and jelly sandwiches is getting a little ridiculous– all that’s needed is a microwave to defrost it and a hand to put it in, take it out, and cram it in the waiting mouth–

from the ocean

January 17, 2010 jbh Leave a comment


it’s been a year and a half since i have smelt and tasted the salt of the ocean– an oddity for me– i have always managed to get back every year regardless of any life circumstances– my “silly” disease of meniere’s continues to turn my world upside down– thank you to relatives that send pictures!!!

a fortune i received in a fortune cookie– “your blessing is no more than being safe and sound for a whole lifetime” when i look at the recent earthquake in haiti, could i really ask for more–

advance guards

January 6, 2010 jbh Leave a comment

i was driving this morning and saw some stacks from corn made by the amish– they reminded me of advance guards–


i used to look out from my window
and see the tall grass in the wind
standing there just like advance guards
waiting for the battle to begin

golden ribbons

January 2, 2010 jbh Leave a comment

there is a journey i take every so often and i pass this tree– it always rocks me to see the ribbon and think how little has changed from the time i was a teenager till now–


“we see young men our own age in coffins
and mothers in tears for their sons
and sweetheart’s and wives
alone with their memories
and golden ribbon’s those fortunes of war”

“outside under the purple sky,
diamonds in the snow,
sparkle.
our hearts were singing,
it felt like christmas time.”
