wild hearth

image n a rime with story

by Dave Self

to a muse,

an old man plays,

crafting words n ways

t pair culture with nature,

t see folk plant n places

t tend, gather, savor

wild flavor

bearing

sticks for the fire,

tidbits for the stew,

n story bits to spin

round a circle,

sharing

round a 

wild hearth

t'reweave the world

a few threads at a time

spin stories n make morsels

to share round a

Wild Hearth

together

pondering the nature 

of culture and nature 

in our neighborhoods 

seasonal 

recipes, doodles, 

tips, crafts n more

musings

to beckon

pair and repair

culture with nature

- and celebrate -

every month, 

season n year

little

fractal forms, 

rimes and memes,

like seeds for sowing

that'll sprout, grow,

reseed n so on 

they go

------ 

recipes

t savor each 

season 

------ 

'looms'

for reweavin'

culture n nature 

thread by thread,

weave n again

n sew on

------ 

i-mage

to awaken 

wonder

quipart

n story time

t be n rime

in place
