    Dear Syl:

    Well, here we both are at our little public libraries [which we are fighting to keep open!].

    Yes, this generation thing has become the topic du jour!

    Please feel free to share your thoughts, with or without the pane ...

    A have a few selections that will come under the heading of Through a Brightened Pane. Since my collection of vignettes has begun to deal with looking from within or without panes of glass, I've had reason lately to see things from the brightened point of view. ------------------------------- That is wonderful to hear, CoCo. TABP - I like that. Sylvia

    Why, hello, John Doe!

    I trust you and your avian companion are well.

    It's so good to have you on this thread!

    Perhaps you can share one of your stream-of-consciousness missives with us.

    I'm sure CoCo et al, along with yours truly, will be most appreciative.

    Would be my pleasure, but I have to be at work in 20 minutes.

    Setting: From computer work station looking smack dab into cabinet doors to my present cheery desk facing out a huge window with a view of forest and its wild critters, I now write longhand and draw inspiration in the best way possible but a way that had been eluding me for so long [chained to the net, keyboard and a host of other artificialities].

    Spun in the wee hours by some impossible spider, a single, immeasurable strand of gossamer hangs -

    suspended, it would seem, from nowhere. It has been caught and brightened by a gently rising eastern sun.

    Momentarily a scarcely glancing breeze, declaring a brisk salutation as it careers through the hollow, sets the

    slender thread to swaying in slow and mesmerizing motion.

    I love spiders! And I love gossamer strands... 'mornin', all!

    Good morning, dear Baba!

    The view that I described was truly mesmerizing. I looked out my newly installed window and saw that illumined thread swaying to and fro in the breeze. What a sight!

    Take care!

    I had to move from one station to another; something kept going wrong.

    We're fighting to keep our little library open, too, CoCo.

    In fact, it just recently re-opened.

    Your thoughts remind me so much of Charlotte's Web.

    Good afternoon, Baba.

    Hello,CoCo

    Your story reminds me of the movie"The Fly"

    Upon a closer inspection of the mesmerizing spider you may hear a faint cry.

    Heeelp me! Heeeelp Me!
