Yup! That is my record collection. The fat one with the black edge at the top is a Frank Sinatra Collection. The gold edge is a Nat King Cole Collection. Remember those? They used to be offered on TV..channel 13, PBS most likely as a fund raiser. I was sucker for those🙂. Knew every word of those songs too.

This rise of incivility, hate mongering, and inhumane acts have settled in. It’s sowing itself into our fabric. I worry it’s a stain not easily removed.
a complex legacy
inhumane circumstances
normalized for too long
cotton fields
bloom with the DNA
of my ancestors

poking through the noise
an enchanting melody
soothing hectic mind
deep in each note, a life’s tale
playing from the soul, a gem

I used Enchant & Gem
cherry blossoms in flight
wafts across the plaza
spring breeze

a hushed crowd
held by the groovy meanderings
of the bass in the quartet
fingers snapping
toes tapping,
jazz set begins

For dVerse Poets Pub a poem using the word “groovy”.
fallen leaves
splash color under
autumn skies

fallen fronds
splash color under
gray fall skies
