i talked to my tears
i talked to my tears today they had so much to say as they left my heart and painted my face sometimes i’m torn apart by this crazy race called life i talked to my tears today they had so much to say as i felt the weight of my head in my hands sometimes i can’t think straight longing for love in the hate in all the races that shine so beautifully shine i talked to my tears today they had so much to say tell me more of the me that must be renewed that must be changed transformed rearranged in the deep by love from above i talked to my tears today they had so much to say so i spoke about hope that there is a day when justice will come pain will be gone and tears wiped away on the shores of that day all nations will sing dance and play
yay! it’s springtime!
A little front yard beauty! Have a great day!

diminishing echoes
Springtime in the Midwest always has glimpses of the summer to come, as well as echoes of the winter we just left. Recently we have had summer like weather that beckoned to be enjoyed on two wheels. Looking forward to diminishing echoes and warmer days.
as seen on the 606
I recently took a walk on the 606 with my grandson. What is the 606 you say? Here is some info from the excellent 606 website:
The story of The 606 begins just after the Great Chicago Fire. In their efforts to rebuild the city, the Chicago City Council gave permission for the Chicago & Pacific Railroad to lay tracks down the middle of Bloomingdale Ave. (1800 N) on Chicago’s Northwest side. The move helped connect goods from outlying rail ports to the busy Chicago River, and supported Chicago’s burgeoning industrial growth.
You can read more at the website. If you are ever in Chicago, it is worth taking some time to walk the 606. It was a cold day, but we just loved the sights and sounds of our walk.
