Ice on the back yard pond; we had our first true frost last night.
i carry your heart with me
(i carry it in my heart)
i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is you doing, my darling
i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it’s whatever you are a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of a sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart.
i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
This yellow pepper started rotting in just the right place so I cut eyes and made a Halloween Pepper.

..October morning in the garden..
All the recent rain in Lewisville (Texas) has washed out a few reptiles into our neighborhood from the nearby canal…a Painted Turtle showed up by a neighbor’s garage and was the center of attention for a few hours until it was brought back to the canal area. The same neighbor found a snake in their garage earlier last week. Judging from their description it may have been a non-venomous Rough Green Snake.
I recently watched a very interesting documentary about the perilous state of our planet, and things we can do to affect the course of necessary change. Narrated by Leonardo Dicaprio I highly recommend seeing this film, The 11th Hour
