Carnal Equinox Redux



The day is warm and bright.  The walkers and runners stream by.  Today the hordes will gather on the Boulevard to look at festival art (that is a category).  I will spend the day trying to recover from my bullet train of a life.  I got up tired this morning.  There were reasons.  Now, mid-morning, I'm able to get back to my own form of living.  Such as it is.

The colors of spring are vibrant.  Yesterday was the Vernal Equinox, or as I most often call it, the Carnal Equinox.  The sap begins to flow, the creeks begin to rise.  Hearts begin to flutter.  There is a primal calling within and without.  The old goat-footed balloon man, etc.

Seek joy, I say, the stuff that fills the heart and makes you sing.  Joyfulness trumps everything.  To the joyful goes the bounty.  To the joyful go the prize.

But I am tired and will have to sleep.  There has been too much champagne.

In honor of the season, yesterday I spent the hours getting beautified. I am as fresh now as a spring kitten.  Puppy, I mean.

The day spins on.  I must away.
