Got this gang finally fed and tucked in their corners. Was it only yesterday we were sitting on Mick's bed? "Yesterday in another lifetime," Stu says. Drove the 101 up from San Diego. Shining weather and fringed treetops. No fires on the coast. Mick and Susie live at the end of a country road. Right out of one of Eve's paintings. Horses dreaming in the pasture. Roses and chives in the glen. Mick in black silk pajamas eating plums Susie picked from their trees. Plum preserves Susie put up before school cooling on the counter. She's the beautiful magician who wears many hats. Mick laughing. Talking. Life, Love, and Music. His thought process like a flash from a lighthouse window. Occasionally in the middle of a story he'd sing a few words or a line. Time would stop then. Bookmarked. He is always a poet. And Truth. His eyes are blue. His heart and soul are crystal clear. Never said goodbye. Never will. Still sitting in the ale-colored afternoon light of your porch. In our hearts we are. God bless.
