Into the Light (December 1991- June -1992)

 

Judy's father Ray died on December 13th, 1991 in the morning, after a long illness. We went to the funeral. I remember a priest saying, "Ray learned to accept." I wondered how much he could have said if he could have said anything at all. I wished I'd known him better than hardly at all.

 

 

Jason at Christmas in l991

 

May this Christmas be your best so far

and may you come to know how really special you are.

It's how you feel about your self that is how your really are.

We love you Jason, Happy Christmas.

Joshua and Christmas 1991

 

You've always looked at life your own way

and said, and done what you've believed in.

Never stop being your self Joshua, you’re beautiful.

We love you.

Our last St. Bonus Day Flight

 

It’s so much more than David's last bonus day

a night flight left standing, alone in my ego,

once again making a fool of myself

drawing pictures on napkins, trying portrait deals

this frontal attack never works, still I persist.

 

 

 

Everything, everything has become a poem.  March 14th, 1992
