sunrise, how many i’ve seen already this year each says change your life — today began so well then rain on my roof 'til dusk
Image: Clouds, Sun and Sea’ 1952 – Max Ernst (1891 – 1976)
Today’s musical offering – (more hammering I’m afraid) – Australian composer Ross Edwards with marimba-iste and percussion black belt Michael Askill with Marimba Dances
In the room the air has sides cornered, delimited floor to ceiling a dragonfly (call it thought) clatters against the glass

And today’s musical offering, in keeping with the mallet theme of yesterday’s pick, here’s jazz vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson from 1968 (tho not released until 1980…what were they thinking?) with his album Patterns (pick any track you like – it’s all gold – a favourite: Nocturnal – just the ticket for writing tanka…)
the coleus
cuttings have flourished
seven clones now
jungle my bookshelves
mauve drape my dictionary
Image: Never let anyone give you one of these things, they’ll take over…
Today’s musical choice: Japanese ambient artist Masayoshi Fujita with his latest: Led by a Blue Bird into the Mountains (some lovely mallet work by that birdy)
