lynn's words




irrefutable truths

 

 

lin and i are driving home after 

the weekend with colin at the vineyard

 

i'm driving, lin is writing in her journal

 

i'm happy to report colin is doing well

colin's grandfather moderately less gruff

 

yenny eternal, seems to grow younger

 

it was warm for this time of year, and dry

worrisome, but good for the grapes

 

the nights were cool, windows wide open

 

colin and i walked the rows while lin

sketched and talked with colin's grandfather

 

our talk was of war and weather

 

crimes against humanity and complicity

also of books read, media and food consumed

 

remembrances and philosophizing

 

after that, as it's spring, we played catch

baseball and mitts, iconic, classic, much needed

 

colin says i throw like a girl—i say two plus two equals four

Oh my goodness that last line! Love it. Somewhat a variation of the famous line by Peewee Herman, “I know you are but what am I?”

Sounds like it was a beautiful and meaningful day for all.

Sincerely,
Melinda
