March Flying Carpet 2012

In March the Flying Carpet

reveled in the 

Land of Shadows

chiaroscuro snowfall

memory etching

hypnogogic  musings

flotsam/ jetsam

sudden felicity

spring

February Flying Carpet 2012

In February the Flying Carpet

beheld

AN EXUBERANCE OF VALENTINES

Then the Flying Carpet

undulated through

A GERIATRIC OF SNOWBIRDS

and 

A SQUADRON OF SAGUARO

to Tucson, Arizona

went gaga over

A GAGGLE OF GOLF CARTS

went barrel racing through

A CACOPHONY OF CACTUS

slithered through the shadows of

AN AMAZEMENT OF ALOES

paid homage to Our Lady at

AN OVERFLOWING OF OFFERINGS

and hustled home.

Special thanks to Valentiners everywhere,
Bob, Laurel, and Z

January Flying Carpet 2012

In January the Flying Carpet flies
to Coconut Grove Florida
in a

Trans/ Trance
Translating Pattern

conflagration of clouds
elegaic sunset

luscious exploding
cycad blossoms

 

lunar prickles

heliconium salsa costumes

traveler palm jigsaw hearts

shadow baskets

gossamer
order and chaos

Then the Flying Carpet

giddy-ups to Houston

for Zack's show Raw Beauty at Wade Wilson Art

 http://www.wadewilsonart.com

 and then floats to Tadao Ando's 

Modern Art Museum of Fort  Worth

paradox: 

water rippling over stones

recalling raked dry gardens

Special thanks to Karoon and Henri, David Fairchild,

Wade, Ando, and Z, Painter &  Chauffeur Deluxe

December Flying Carpet

In December the Flying Carpet 

REFLECTED

back over the wondrous year of 2011.

"Binding up the brokenhearted"

"Floating and edging towards the glimmer"

"Diners... orchid handkerchiefs... windup cars..."

"The destiny of a lifetime in a glimpse"

"Muse-jumping hummingbird mornings"

"Bimulous Plaza  nights"

"Hovering memory cobwebs"

Special Thanks to all of you 

who have flown with me this year

and

Blessings in The Year of the Dragon 2012

November Flying Carpet

In November the Flying Carpet bought a ticket 

 at the CLIFFS OF INSANITY AMUSEMENT PARK

and rode these rides... 

"The Scared Silly" with Katarina

"The Mysteries of Roswell" with  M#@QQT

 "The Batteries Not Included" with Carl Hungus

"The Crazy Wave" with Fuzz

"The Bed of Doom" with Swiss Cheese

"The Tilt-A-Whirl" with the Eyeball Kid

 

Flying Carpet tips a fool's cap to The Spirit of Levity

October Flying Carpet

In October

the Flying Carpet

lived the High Life

and enjoyed

the acme of autumn.

Braking for the occasional Pegasus,

 

the Flying Carpet was rarin' to go

 

to The Classical Gas Museum in Embudo, NM

and Garcia's Fruit Stand near Velarde, NM.

Braking for migrating cranes,
the Flying Carpet made a splash landing at
Bosque Del Apache Wildlife Refuge,

got its Outsider on at
Pop Shaffer's home
south of scenic downtown Mountainair,

and mourned vanished culture
at the ruins of Abo and Quarai
in the fading blaze of October.
.

Thanks to Susan-san, Walt, Donna, Zack, Lana, Dana, and Linda
for zooming with me on the carpet!
