Ariel


Thank you to Beth, Bhavesh, Clo, Owen, Unseen, Marty, Doc, Rune, Stickup, Chris, Diane, Leslie, Christine, Roxana, and anyone else that may have rested their tired, dignified wings on these pages, in a short respite from the tremulous world, and then left without a visible trace--your appreciation of Angie has touched my ruthful heart.

But all winters eventually give way to spring, where the ground is again fit for soft, checkered blankets and wicker picnic baskets full of ripe apples and sandwiches, for the springtime of my days is now occupied by Ariel, and though she will never replace Angelina, she is the new love of my life.

This blog is Angie's rightful place and it will remain so. I have started a new blog on worpress -- http://exiledprospero.wordpress.com/ It is Ariel's new home.

Farewell


Dear readers,

Many of you over the years have commented on the grace and beauty of my dog Angie. It is with great sadness that I must announce to you that she passed away on Tuesday night. Words cannot express my devastation. How could i let my butterfly angel fly away?

The mirror is broken and i cannot see a way forward for this blog. i really appreciate the small group of loyal readers that have seen fit to populate these pages with their poetry of spirit. After all, it's all about spirit, isn't it? But when the spirit flies away--only shattered fairyland glass remains.

Prospero
