“No High Seat” by Brad Hunter

Some folks like the high seats,

Floating with angels and dragons,

Far beyond the trembling troubles

Of ordinary flesh and bone.

Waking Up
Waking Up

I had a dream in Krakow.
I was sharing acupressure points
with a Zen meditation group.
as we travelled to Auschwitz.
They were the points for grief.
They help us breathe into grief,
rather than use our muscles
to stop its flow.

Baby Blankets for Sarah’s Inn
Baby Blankets for Sarah’s Inn

To start off the new year of 2025, Robin Sheerer and Vanessa Klugman donated 7 hand-knitted baby blanets to Sarah’s Inn. These blankets represent several years and countless hours of loving, enjoyable, joy-fill knitting. All this love and kindness from folks in our Stitching Sutra Circle. To join this circle, contact Robin Sheerer at robinsheerer@gmail.com. Everyone is welcome.
