SELF AND CORVUS WHILE BUSKING AT THE FARMERS' MARKET
(CORVUS HAS APPEARED IN PAST POSTS: NOVEMBER 17, 2013 AND JULY 13, 2014.) |
SPRINGTIME!
The salad
days of busking are beginning again. And
so are the concerts amongst the blossoms and bicycles and birds and bees and
big green eggs and barbeques and bears and stand-up paddleboards!
Oftentimes
in my blog I include MY CHAUCERIAN PARADE, some thumbnail sketches of the
people in the immediate past week that have emotionally moved me, be it in ways positive
or negative.
This week will be
different. Finally it is spring! Finally the weather is warm! Finally my habiliments can be summer side! Finally, I’m busking ‘neath Simpson clouds in
azure skies! Finally kinetic gusts are enveloping my buskspot!
Is the
English idiom, a picture really worth a
thousand words, really true?
Hmmm … in
apophasis fashion, rather than describe in literary detail the blooms and
spumes and perfumes and bird chirps of spring, this week I shall attempt to
gruntle my readers, not with my woolgathering, but by clicking my
IPhone in mauger olla podrida photographic style …

MIKE DITKA
stated that, If you’re not in the parade you watch the parade. That’s life.
I’ll now translate that to Stand-up Paddle-boarding:
‘TIS FAR MORE
EXCITING TO BE DANGEROUS AND WET IN THE DRINK THAN BE EVER SAFE AND DRYLY STANDING ON THE SHORE!
