peanut butter

3 days with the good brothers of camaldoli.
had my first peanut butter sandwich (on freshly baked-by-monks bread) since march.
goodbye gall bladder...... hello my favorite thing on this earth!

"get your quiet on" haiku:

good brothers ring bells
summer morning 5 o'clock
-heat up the coffee!

god's on schedule, vi-

gils,lauds,eucharist,vespers
-nature holds her own.

humans vow silence
birds,sea lions, bees raucous
waves crash loud below

white blanket hides sea
early summer morning fog
-bunny darts nearby

bells ring monks gather
bees buzz, birds call,sea lions laugh
deer are quiet brown

brown converse walk on
hills, sea lit with solstice sun
bunnies everywhere

birds, sea lions exempt
monks, deer, rabbits vow silence
get your quiet on


heaven on this earth
unchanging creed: simplify
bread, peanut butter
