A multi facet face
It's not always so black and white
A multi facet face who's life has been lived
Colorfully full – half full, the glass of red
Winding down for the night ahead,
Drunken thoughts in bed.
My azure eyes tell lies of what I see in her,
She a sister, a mother, mentor or my lover
I've kissed her and hymns
Sung sweetly on her lips
I liked her song better than his.
It's a time to show true colors, all my faces
In those places that once never accepted
The girls who kiss girls and the boys who love boys
Are those who show their colors today, proudly
We march in May

What if no birth happens?
To remember that our collective human experience is woven into the fabric of a vast and intricate tapestry. Reflecting on the universal phenomenon of birthdays, we find ourselves confronted with the humbling reality of our existence. Despite the individual significance we attach to our special day, the sheer volume of births occurring globally serves as a reminder of our shared humanity. On any given day, hundreds of thousands of babies enter the world, each one adding to the tapestry of human history.

How the Harvest Mouse Came to Suisun Bay
A long, long time ago there was a family of harvest mice. Mice are common, but these were unique – born to those who had lived in the salty, marshy bay for many generations, these mice ate and drank from the sea as well as the land and rivers. For generations, there were only the southern families, scattered along the marshes of Corte Madera and in the San Francisco Bay (U.S. Fish & Wildlife, 2013). One family, however, would undergo strife and conflict before reaching a whole new world. What became of them after is another tale entirely – but this is how their story begins.
