Even on Sanibel
hearing the osprey call—-
I miss Sanibel
Wild Tones Bird Calls (Osprey)
SMASHING PUMPKINS: “My Blue Heaven.”
George Held reading one of his poems.
Thanks, Paul. I love the osprey cries, followed by whip-poor-wills calling. Hah!
No, never been to Sanibel, but knew you were in Fla so revised an old Basho haiku for you. Great you can linger in Fla till mid-March. The temp is already mid-Marchian here in the city.
Cheers, George
