Dead Poets – Trash Cats \u00a0–<\/strong> House Wrens<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

TMI Tuesday: July 21,\u00a02020<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n
Posted on<\/span>\u00a0July 20, 2020<\/span><\/a>by<\/span>\u00a0TMI Tuesday blog<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

How do you call a fish? You drop it a line!<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0And I\u2019m dropping\u00a0TMI Tuesday<\/a>. ?<\/div>\n

<\/h2>\n
\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1. What movie can you watch over and over and never tire?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Dead Poets Society<\/span><\/h3>\n

I’ve watched the film \u00a0countless times – and taught it in my modernity\/post-modernity courses in Humanities at Geneva College.\u00a0 Poetry is one of my loves and all-things related to poetry and poets hold great inspiration and interest for me.<\/p>\n

Tom Schulman wrote the script that is based on his experiences at Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville, Tennessee.\u00a0\u00a0The movie \u00a0is inspired by his exceptional \u00a0English teacher, \u00a0Samuel Pickering.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

2. Who is someone you only met once but they left a big impression on you?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Zig Ziglar.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0 I believe in WINNING.\u00a0 I plan to WIN, prepare to WIN \u00a0and I expect to WIN.<\/p>\n

Renaissance Woman,\u00a0 Interview<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. If you had to run away from everyone, where would you hide yourself?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Hallstatt, Austria. This is one of my favorite little villages in Upper Austria.\u00a0 I’d like to be there for a winter –<\/p>\n

season because I have only visited Hallstatt on July days – for about 12 summers.\u00a0 See Photos Here!<\/a><\/p>\n

In my first book,\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Concerti: Psalms for the Pilgrimage<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 published by Kota Press in January 2003, I have written about Hallstatt, and many other notable and enjoyable places in Austria, and other European places.<\/p>\n

4. What is the worst topping to put on a pizza?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Anything that is from an animal, meat or fish – UGH!\u00a0 I love animals but don’t eat them.<\/p>\n

5. What do you spend most of your time doing?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

I am Thinking about\u00a0 writing poems 24\/7.\u00a0 If I am not thinking of writing and composing in my mind, then I am actually writing spare poems, and\u00a0 thoughtful personal essays.\u00a0 I am also a fiber artist, so I always have something “in the works” in my fiber studio. I create exotic and elegant medieval bead working pieces – wall works and talismans – that are museum quality pieces made for exhibitions in art galleries and museum shows.\u00a0 <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Bonus<\/strong>: If you could pick any animal to talk, which would it be?\u00a0\u00a0 Trash Cats<\/span><\/h3>\n

First Thought – Best Thought – \u00a0Following\u00a0 Allen Ginsberg’s directions for spontaneous writing,<\/p>\n

I put down my FIRST THOUGHT – which he says is the BEST THOUGHT.\u00a0 See\u00a0 this book here!<\/a><\/p>\n

My favorite wild animal is the Opossum.\u00a0\u00a0 They are quite shy, move quietly through the night, and after enjoying a meal on my porch, they stop to give themselves a bath.\u00a0 They really are meticulous at cleaning up after eating. I’d love to hear about their travels and where they have gone and what they have seen on their night journeys.\u00a0 Why are they known as Trash Cats? \u00a0 See Video Here!<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Second Thought – I’m intrigued lately by the pair of house wrens who have selected one of my hanging geranium baskets to build a nest in. Right now the babies have hatched and the parents are flying in and out, all day long, with a beak-full of insects to fee their offspring.\u00a0 This is POEM WORTHY – and on my mind a LOT.\u00a0 I also watch and think about the dedication to family the birds have – their\u00a0 passion and purpose \u00a0is to care for their babies – and what human parents could learn from their example of faithfulness and dedication.<\/p>\n
