Writing Spaces

Light—still what I'm all about.

I agree, as always, with Mary Oliver, one of my favorite poets, when she writes "But I also say this:  that light is an invitation to happiness, and that happiness, when it's done right, is a kind of holiness, palpable and redemptive."

And like a toss of the dice, I come upon this reference to light and happiness (these in Venice) when I query my own writing:  "The bell to welcome the morning, tolling on and on again at first light.  Glass beads, like a rosary of quiet pleasures."
