What I Like

What I Like

I like words.  I like finding new words, discovering old words, and finding new meanings for words which I already know. 

I like chocolate.  I like hot chocolate, chocolate cookies, homemade and box made chocolate cake, chocolate candies, chocolate body wash, and chocolate colored paint.  However, I don't really care for chocolate lip gloss or canned chocolate frosting. 

I like spring because it means I can open my front door and my windows and turn off the heater.  I also like seeing the flowers begin to bloom despite my complete inattention to them.  I like the idea of spring cleaning even though my inability to do such is renowned.  I like hearing the little frogs, the "peepers" in the swamp that borders this piece of property in Maine.  I like the smell of earth and being able to go outside in my bare feet and feel the ground be warm under my toes. 

I like magnetic poetry even though I have none of it up currently because of the children.  I like the simplicity that it offers.  The limited availability of words to be chosen.  Plus it reminds me of Chicago and Amy when I was fourteen.

I like photography and taking pictures.

I like being able to sit down and write.
