A Couple of Northern Flickers

I was originally going to do one red shafted northern flicker. Quickly I fell in love with the idea of two at the suggestion of the artist, Suzanne Shifflett.. Soon my arm was transformed into a home for this lovely couple. I hope they don’t fly away too soon.

A beautiful night in West Hollywood

because finally
after all the struggle
and all the years,
you don’t want to any more,
you’ve simply had enough
of drowning
and you want to live and you
want to love and you will
walk across any territory
and any darkness,
however fluid and however
dangerous, to take the
one hand you know
belongs in yours.

Excerpt from The Truelove by David Whyte (House of Belonging)
