It Looks A Lot Like Last Year

eagle perspective

time without calendar
days of hunt and hunger

soon a mate in talons clasped
falling toward the sea
new year imperative

Hope you all had a fine New Year's Eve. We celebrated with good friends, food, wine, and a movie. Lots of good cheer, talk, politics, laughter and sadness.

For a sobering moment -- take a look at the New York Times moving tribute to the 3000 American soldiers who have lost their lives in combat. Go look at those faces and remember.

Also, a compelling read can be found over at Staying Alive.

It may be a new year, but unless we all work for peace and environmental health, it's going to look a lot like the old one.

Happy New Year.
