The Seasons: A Poem

Sunrise over Amazing Grasses Family Farm The mad Artist wields His brush, Painted colors rush, To life and give flush, Before the quiet autumn hush. The life seems to pour, As colors fall to the floor, To be seen no more, Outside the dark, grey door. Brightness from below, Sun upon the snow, High, cold clouds blow, Flakes and ice appear to grow. The man melts with little seen, Underneath, pale, grey green, Hides life in dark unseen, Waits for warmth and to careen. Buds on branches show, Patience starts to grow, Trickles, streams and veins flow, Bringing fruits of melted snow. Sprung to life it springs, Bees, birds, sound rings, Lush green flings, Its gift bounty brings. Green growth gives one last rush, Underneath the Painter's brush. The mad Artist wields His brush, before the quiet autumn hush. More poetry is available from James M. Hahn in  The Last Dragon and Other Poems  available now.

To the Hospital and back again

Catherine enjoyed the weekend away from her other home (Nationwide Children's Hospital) but just couldn't resist going back for a look.

Sunday night her loving parents changed the dressing around her g-tube because the dressing was coming loose and looking pretty worn. After changing it we thought the tube looked like it had come out a bit but there was no fluid etc.

Well, it did work it's way out through the day Monday. A visiting nurse said we needed to go to the ER to have it looked at or replaced.

Catherine was really fussy the whole way there - she knew where we were taking her! And by the time we got to see the doctor the tube had come all the way out.

After consulting with surgery they placed another tube and all is well now. Catherine is back home sleeping, so is mom, and dad is on his way as soon as he hits "publish post." Thanks for all of your prayers and support!
