The last one has faint crepuscular rays.

J-K-L
Just the same forevermore,
On the moonlit rock
by the silent shore
Known to the living
voice of the deep
Say, whose was the spirit
embodied in thee?
Lost in the wild woods
—dark and deep—
Look at the same round moon
with me
G-H-I
Gliding o’er the glimmering sea
And all we dream or wish for thee
The birthday morn when thou art three
When the days are all the same to thee
Here upon the quivering margin
Every star in yonder welkin
To grace henceforth Time’s diadem
In the years that followed
when days were dark
Beneath such skies
what need of chart?
D-E-F
Dances on the silent sea
Phantom forms that flit and flee
Ever bubbling on in glee,
Radiant sky
a boundless sea
Floating shadows
almost blended,
The long discussion
silent
ended
A-B-C
A hope and everlasting love–
Free as the stars that shine above
Bringing their message
across the deep
Onward the long
procession sweeps
Where tide and current
play hide and seek
Caught as it were in a tangled net
Till the stars we remember will not forget
Catnip and Bee
I’m up to P (working on Q), but probably won’t get any scanning done tonight. The second half of the alphabet is definitely more difficult than the first. I have no idea what I’m going to do about X and Z.
Barely Controlled Chaos
Once upon a time, this was a freshly painted coffee table with pristine collage work covering the top. And then I started using it as a workbench.
I finished working in one book a few days ago and started on another last night. It’s an ABC book of found poem fragments and collage. The poetry is going slowly, but I’m up to G. Hopefully I’ll get the finished pages scanned tonight or tomorrow. And now I’m off to scrounge up a suitably celestial image.
We Are Now Prepared for the Apocalypse
When the End Times come, everyone but Kirk Cameron and his banana will be stuck here on Earth.
If you find you’ve misplaced your corkscrew in the ensuing chaos, not to worry! All you need to open a bottle of wine–and those of us Left Behind will surely be requirous of an adult beverage–is a shoe.

To other realms beyond the sea
With scissored knife and shuttled bar
Well marked throughout their journey
By groups of lucky stars.
