(Photo from Recipe.com) - Venison stew in a white pot with carrots, potatoes, onions, and celery in dark broth, sprinkled with a variety of "green" spices.

making venison stew again

usually
it’s red wine
dark familiar

today
brown ale instead

Smithwick’s

had forgotten
how much I love
that quiet malt warmth

venison
onions
soft bitterness of hops

some flavors
don’t argue
they simply remember

Photo from yesterday - Green Bearded iris shoots emerging from brown mulch in a garden bed, illuminated by early spring sunlight.

When will these new sprouts flower?

Through my window
I see Spring
There is nothing more poetic
than Nature’s musing
Nothing more assuring
than a Sparrow’s song

False Spring

so maybe
Early Spring

today
90° F (32° C)

now i'm wondering

when did New Jersey
move to Florida?
