A Good Friday.

Animated paintings with memories /
of tiny monkeys swinging in trees /
and masked Mexican wrestlers… El Santo. /
Bland bean dip and high octane hot green sauce. /
Frida Kahlo brought to mind in framed prints. /
Symbols of death our constant companions /
during lunch with daughter and granddaughter at Los Paisa.

Followed by beach combing and bird watching, /
locating Mystery Lake, a muskrat, a falcon, a baker’s half dozen other species… /
and pockets full of “special” stones and maybe some stories /
